The whole Cooper family got Lap-band weight loss surgery because Tom and Sue Cooper realized that they are genetically predisposed to be overweight. They gave their children years of healthy life by allowing them to get control over their weight early on. The cost of weight loss surgery is nothing compared to the cost of a lifetime of obesity. Every year a child remains overweight affects their long term quality of life. Why not help your children live longer and healthier? Why not build their self-esteem and in turn their ability to succeed in life?
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.
