Hello Everyone! I'm a 31 year old man from Houston looking into getting Lapband WLS sometime soon. I feel like I have tried everything. I'm tired of not feeling like myself. I haven't gotten approval yet, but am looking forward to seeing what my chances are. I have around 36 BMI and was wondering if anyone has had success getting WLS/Lapband at that BMI. I have a lot of the conditions that go with being obese; Hypertension, sleep Apnea, High Cholesterol, and definitely some self-esteem issues. I also have a fatty liver which I am not sure hurts or helps my case. I also wanted to see if there are any men out there that can let me know what the experience was like for them, though I would also love to hear from the women on their experiences as well. Seeing all of the success everyone has achieved gives me great hope this is the tool I need to make my weight loss successful. Any and all feed back is much appreciated!!!
