Robert had his Lap-band weight loss surgery 10 months ago. For the first time in 20 years his BMI is less than 40. He did several months of research about the weight loss surgeries available before making his decision to have Lap-band surgery. He found that bypass procedures have a fairly high mortality rate and that the Lap-band is much safer and fully reversible. He is another big fan of Dr. Simpson's support groups. There he learns how to succeed in using the Lap-band weight reduction tool.
NOTICE: The lap band is considered major surgery, with all the risks of surgery, including the possibility of tubing breaks, port flips, band slips, erosion, and even death. While these risks are small, they are real.
