Hi! Welcome to LBT! You will love being on here. There is so much good info. The youngest age that I have seen is 20 but that doesnt mean the there arent younger people. I am 21 and had my surgery on jan.9th so I am still pretty new to everything. I hope that everything is going well with you or will go well with you.

Hello girls!

I am 15 and had the band done at 14. There are not many younger bandsters around, but the site is great none the less.

Welcome, and good luck with your bands!

After surgery, I had gas pains. Other than that, I didn't have any pains.

To get started, my mom emailed Dr. Ortiz. Side effects all I had was gas pains. The surgery is really really helping. I like having the lapband, because it helps me lose weight.
