sandiego15 0 Posted July 29, 2010 I am 5'3" and weight 162, would I qualify for a lap band surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reverie 49 Posted July 29, 2010 Probably not. Your BMI is 28.7. Most doctors will only operate on those with a BMI of 35 and up. If you lose 22lbs you'll be in the normal range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
