      That's great! After reading your post I figured my BMI. I'm now just obese. (versus morbidly obese). That made me happy.

    I can remember about 3 years ago when my chart stated that I was morbidly obese. I was devastated.

    Congrats! On your success.

    Did you have the lap band alone or did you have the lap band with imbrication? I'm scheduled to have the later procedure with Dr Wilkenfield in a few weeks. I'm excited & nervous.
