I had my LAP-BAND® on 4/23 at Madigan and it has been a great experience. I too was not considered severely obese but am on medication for blood pressure which automatically made me a candidate. I am now down 20 lbs and hopefully will start losing more as I got my 4th fill yesterday and am now up to 7cc's in a 14cc band. I feel a little more restriction with each fill (1cc every two weeks) but not quite at the point of a 2lb a week loss, so until I get to that point they will continue to give me fills. They are very conservative about fills at Madigan, therefore if you live any distance and it is a problem making it out there every two weeks than I can understand it being a problem. I am blessed with the fact that I am a government employee on Ft. Lewis and my husband too works at Madigan as a civilian, so always a reason to be out here.
