My mom had gastric bypass, and she had to quit smoking. She is having a knee replacement done this month,but doesnt have to quit. Im thinking about having the lap band done, but there is nothing on the webiste stating I have to quit. I have no problem doin this, b/c I believe it is for a good cause..but I am curious to why you have to quit for this surgery but not others.

It depends on the surgeon and the type of anesthesia being given. smoking robs the body of oxygen, therefore, during recovery it may affect breathing if given a general anes. and healing.
