I am considering this surgery and was wondering if there is a overweight minimum of pounds that you have to be in order to be a candidate? I am about 80lbs overweight is this enough? I am a 15/16 in pants and wondering if there are any other women who have had this surgery who are under 100lbs overweight? Were you able to lose all your weight? Diets just don't seem to work to well for me I really don't eat that much, but I do have a large dinner and usually skip breakfast. Any feedback would help, thanks. Patricia
