  1. I have been doing alot of research and have read alot of the comments on this forum, which has help alot. I have selected Dr. B at the Richardson surgery center if I do decide to do this. My question is, is there anyone that has had to lose between 40 - 50 pounds that can share their experiences with me? Most posts that I have seen, the weight loss goals have been greater than that. Any info would be appreciated.

    Considering the Lapband

    Thanks to everyone for their replies!! The primary thing that scares me the most is not the surgery itself (all though that is pretty scary) is that I will do this and still not be able to lose weight, just like all the other diets I have been on!!

    Yes, there is a doctor where I live (Texas) that advertises, if you are at least 30 pounds overweight you can have the surgery. Which is why I contacted him. I have been strugaling with my weigh since I was a young child. You name the diet program and I have been on it. It is just as hard for someone that is 40+ pounds overweight to lose weight. So I am glad that the doctors are realizing this. I do realize that this is a BIG decision, which is why I am trying to get all the info that I can. So thats why I was hoping to hear from someone that is in this same situation.

    I did a search and did not find anything on low BMI. I check some of the threads and didn't find anything. Does anyone know if they have seen this topic before and where??
