I was just wondering how much overweight you have to be to have lap band surgery? I am 5' 6" and I weigh about 205. I have tried dieting, weight watchers and diet pills. I was just wondering if I would be a good canidate for the surgery??

definetly not.
while you are overweight there is absolutely no medical research that can determine the long term effects of that procedure. however common sense would tell you that changing the physical nature of the gastro intestinal tract is not good.
you have not been given the proper tools to lose weight, shoot me an email.
