My name is Dave I get banded in 12 hrs 6'8" 409# and 165# to go -
Today I paid for the Surgery. 100% out of pocket but it was the best money ever spent. I am 35 years old 6'8" tall and weigh 405#s. My weight has fluctuated incredably over the last 18 years. I weighed mid 300's in the early 90's while play football in college, in the mid 90's weighed as little as 197# after getting a divorce and joining the army where i was a Ranger. Eight years ago I got remarried. I have six kids that I currently watch from the sidelines but can not keep up with. I am excited to have this surgery, the changes over the next years. Oh to be able to run with my kids.... To do a triatholon with my friends. Until next time

I have a BMI of 46.7 and get banded on August 24th. A little nervous and a lot excited. My Sister had it done in March. I just can't waite till this time next year. -
My sister had the lapband done in march and my surgery is scheduled for August 24th. Her surgery was fifteen grand in seattle w/ one year of after care included and fills thereafter costing 75.00 each. My surgery is in Denver for 9950.00 w/ 3 months of after care included but my fills thereafter will only be 15.00 each. I can not believe the road that has gotten me here. I was an athlete in high school and college. I was a Ranger in the Army. 12 years ago I ran 10 miles in 61minutes and 4seconds. And yet here I am over 400 pounds and unable to walk a flight of stairs without a break. I watch my kids from the sidlines unable to share with them the knowledge and experience that I obtained at there age. I am excited and yet nervous
