Hello. I am just now considering lap band surgery. I'm 39 years old, my height is 5 ft 5 inches and I weigh 186. I try to be as active as I can with a 4-year-old daughter and 1-year-old boy/girl twins. I just can't get this weight off of me that has been on me for about 6-7 years. I play tennis every Thursday and I'm killing my joints from all this weight. I have twisted my ankle a few times too and I know it is because of the extra weight. I think my BMI is around 31 but I sure feel like it's about 40! Would I qualify for this surgery?
Thanks, Jodi
