LorrieFord 0 Posted October 17, 2010 Hello, I was just banded on October 11, 2010. My surgery was done by Dale Mortensen in Great Falls, MT. I was very excited to start this journey. My first doctors appointment was September 1. I started the pre-op diet on September 18 at 293 lbs and was at 280 when I entered the hospital on October 11. I am 51 years old and struggle now to lose weight with all the yo yo dieting I have done over the years. I have managed to lose weight over the years but always gain it back. I pray the lap band is my answer.:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
