well its good to see places adressing the problems but gastric bypass. EWWWWWW.. I would love it if my 15 year old daughter would even try weightloss and I would overjoyed for her to get the band. Shes like 230 lbs at 5'7

But GB no way. I would only allow any of my kids to do that if a band had already failed for them. But thats me I have personal issues w ith bypaass watching family members suffer malnutrition & hair & teeth loss from it.

But I wish there was more attention on our kids diets besides avoiding sweets. Cause that isnt her problem, shes a carb junkie, rameen 4-5 times a day plus the dinner I make. I don't buy sweets/chips etc. never really have only the occasional treats
