Don't know how I am still alive, according to my BMI!
Hope my doc helps me.

When do you get your band? Welcome to the site! Donna

hello.
Not plucked up the courage to ask for a band yet, but I will go this week and see what my GP says.

Caz99:

My bmi was 51 when I first started. I think it's somewhere between 36 and 38 now. I still have 64 pounds to go to goal.

My only regret with the Lap Band is that I didn't get it when it first became available. I did get it as soon as I found out about it.

Good luck, and feel free to ask any questions. I didn't know about this site until after I was banded. There's so much helpful information here.

Take care.

Sue
