Answer 1
First of all it is good to go for weight loss solution. You have the right for this. But as your weight is less than 200lbs and also your BMI are 34 then as per eligibility criteria you are not right candidate for lap band surgery. But the weight difference is not so much so you should meet to your surgeon to decide whether you should go for it or not. Do not wait until your weight become 300lbs. Meet today.
