Hello my name is maylene I am currently 17 years old & for a while I have been researching information on lap-band surgery . im pretty sure I qualify for it but im not sure if im age appropriate . Some people say yes & other say no . But I have an appointment with my family doctor on thursday . I just really hope I can go through with this I tried excersising dieting & I currently still do , but nothing seems to be coming off . I just want to live a better & healthy life . Can anyone give me some insight & advice?

& thanks everyone you guys helped me A-LOT already

I think ima just go for it I been over weight my whole life so far & I started dieting a while ago im still dieting now . I already had a personal trainer at planet fitness but nothings working & my BMI is 37 . I don't want to wait to long because I don't want to gain more weight . I start nursing school next month , I have been employed for 2years I know im mature enough to make the choice & my mother supports me on it . Did any of you guys have any complications with the surgery?

My mother & I already called my insurrence & they will cover it I just have to go through a program first & I already have an appointment talk speak with a doctor any other expenses I could pay for my self no problem thanks . Have you had the surgery?
