Mr Super has an excellent reputation, you will be in very good hands with him. If he has accepted you for surgery then your BMI is high enough. For a private patient the guidelines are BMI over 35 to have a band, although sometimes people who start at 35 are a lower BMI by the time of the op if they have been on a pre op diet.
Good luck, hope it all goes well. I started at BMI 41 and how have a BMI of 24.5 I weigh 10st 10lbs which I never dreamed possible a year ago. |
