    JUNE 2009 Lap Band Surgery

    He said it was my BMI, and i think it has something to do with the amount of fat on your stomach. So thats another reason why ive been really hitting the gym and trying to lose, because i dont want him to have make any additional cuts. He also said it would make my healing easier....because its only one incision. He said that they have only been doing this procedure for a little over a year now, but he's done many. I will definately keep you posted on all the updates:thumbup:.

    JUNE 2009 Lap Band Surgery

    I dont have to do a pre-op diet either. My BMI was 36. Only clear liquids the day before surgery. But I'll probably do liquids the entire weekend since my surgery is on a Monday. Im 5'8 1/2", and weighed 236 at my first visit. Now im down to 220. Ive been going to the gym, and eliminated high calorie drinks. My Surgeon also told me that im a candidate for having a one port surgery. Which means i will only need one incision throught the navel, to place the band and then the port. But he told that if necessary during surgery, they will do the additional incisions.
