Anyone else had laproscopic WLS and started out over 500lbs?

I was told by my sister, who is also researching WLS, that most surgeons won't do laproscopic surgery on someone as large as I am (500lbs..maybe slightly over) Not that I wouldn't have the surgery done if I had to go the open route, but would like to have it laproscopically if at all possible. Just wondering if anyone else has run into that problem.
