BMI 31-33 Should I or Shouldn't I???

[pamblan 2]

Hello Everyone,

I have a question for anyone who started out with a BMI in the 31-33 range. I am 5'4" and weigh 198 lbs, some doctors are saying that I am too "small" for a sleeve????? I have lost and gained the same 60 pounds over and over again. This feels like a great solution. Is there anyone else out there that started around this weight and how have you done post sleeve?? Thank you for all of your help. I really appreciate any input you can give me.
