Hello, I'm new to this and any information would be gratefully appreciated. I am about to be 52 and have been overweight since my last son was born...21 years ago! I am 5'5" my weight floats between 195-203. While we were stationed in Alaska I asked my PCM for help with the lap band and she laughed at me, said I wouldn't qualify. Yet, I would see younger women, who weighed a little more than me that were going in for gastric bypass.
If you have any tips that I might could use to convince my PCM, here in Missouri, to get me a referral that would be great.
Thanks ~ Connie ~
