My facility has a 16 year old male who is " too big " for a laproscopic

RYGB as the surgeon does not want to open him for the surgery. He must

lose 60# in order to qualify for surgery. That said, does anyone have

experience with VLCD in adolescents or another solution to this issue?

He has been attempting to follow the traffic light diet and exercise

that we use in clinic with little success.

Thanks!
