What do you guys think about this? Now you can have a bmi of 30 and qualify for the lap band. I have been reading so many stories and so glad I decided to get the band. Surgery in 8 days!! See link of interesting insight on the new fda approval. Do you think insurance companies will bite on this? http://articles.nydailynews.com/2011-02-18/entertainment/28631190_1_lap-band-weight-loss-surgery-band-slippage-adjustable-gastric-band
