I'm  44 yrs old & weight is 251.  I'm waiting to have a revision surgery.  I had a Lap band put in in Louisville Ky in Nov. 2003 my weight them was 286.  I was down to 156 after having a tummy tuck in Feb. 2007 .  But I had a head on car wreak that fall & had to have my Band removed.  My surgeon only did open bypass & he wanted to do the surgery when he took out the band.  I didn't not want to be opened up.  So I just let him take out the Lap band the way it went in. I held my weight just fine til about 1 1/2  yrs ago.  My life took many difference changes & I went in to a deep depression.   My weight started going back up & up.  I'm not up to 286 but 251.  I've decided to have the bypass done now that I found a place that can do it with out opening me up.  I'm all set, had all my Requirements for Bariatric Surgery completed in Sept. 2011  & was waiting on them to get them back to my Surgeon.  After meeting my surgeon the first time.  I was'nt crazy about him.  But felt like I could move on with my surgery.  But after having meet with him the 2ND time  (Late Oct 2011)& my husband came with me.  I wasn't not letting this person touch me.  & my Husband agreed with me.. I've changed Dr.'s .  & I'm waiting to see this Dr on Dec 9Th.  The new office is helping me a lot.  I'm hoping to a surgery date after seeing the New Dr. on Dec 9Th.  & I cant wait..
