Banding at 30 BMI

By dwright

· 302 views

I just wanted to put a note on here after something my doc told me. He said there are studies being conducted on the Lap Band for people as low as 30 BMI. It would not be for someone who just put on the weight. More for someone who has been there a long time and it's doubtful they will ever get the weight off and keep it off. Yo-Yo dieting.

Anyway, he said they're having great results and other countries will be approving the lap band for folks at 30 BMI soon and eventually it will be approved in the U.S.:bored:
