gelyfish 0 Posted June 26, 2011 Hello, flutterby66, I too have been overweight for 3 decades (I'm only 38!) and I go in for my surgery the first week of August in Mexico with one of the top doctors in the Americas. The US is still WAY behind in lap band experience and they charge SOOOOOO much. I'm very happy and have the utmost confidence in my medical team. Good luck with you adventure, maybe we'll run into along each other in these boards. gelyfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
