Hi Sheldon,

Stan here. 53 years old, father of 3. started at 388; surgery was July 1 and I now weigh 307. YEA!!! I screwed around with the decision for about two years. did I lose 80 pounds in two years? hell no... finally sucked it up and went for the surgery and the difference is night and day.. TRULY night and day.

I have not had a fill yet, and am now learning to adjust my HEAD to the lap band since my body seems quite happy with it.

any questions you may have, feel free to click on my profile and email me privately. I'll be glad to help any way I can.

Stan
