Anyone over 400 pounds?

Have the sleeve done? I'm asking for my husband who is petrified that they will go in and not be able to do the surgery.

I don't have the sleeve so I cannot speak on experience with it but I do have the band and I was 450 on surgery day. I was 488 when I went for my consult and my Surgeon didn't bat an eye. Whether or not they can or will do the surgery would probably come down to his medical history but honestly I have never heard of anyone being passed on because of how big they were.

I was 423 at my highest and am under 320 now. Go For It!

This time last year I was in the 420s. I got sleeved on 5/28/13 and it was one of the best things I've ever done. Note that I was 366 when I got sleeved but they would have done it in the 400s.
