Hey I was there on the 12th Did you have your surgery?

Hey I live in Stone Mountain. How far is that from you?

You are doing fantastic! Lap BAnd is slower. I know because I was banded in late Oct and to date (May) I have only lost 50 pounds. But you know what? I feel better, I look better and I have gone from a size 22-to a 16 sometimes 18. It might take a bit longer. but it will happen. Keep doing what you are doing. I have 50 more pounds to go, and I know that I will get there. and you will too.

I was at the Tijuana Wal Mart shopping the next day!

Yes, in October. He was wonderful the hotel was great. His mom was full of energy. I can not say enlugh about him. Lori was my coordinator.

No you are not. I live in Decatur whwere are you_

Dr.Ortiz is the best! I was banded by him in Oct 2006 No problems at all

Dr. Ortiz is the best!!!!!!! I was banded in October NOOOOOO Complications at all ever. I was up the next day. His staff and his mom are WONDERFUL...... He is FINE!

I too am sorry for what has happend to you, but I have heard nothing but bad things about Betancourt and I have not been on this board for very long. I went to Mexico and was very happy and still am very happy with the treatment I recieved. The surgeon that I chose(Dr. Ortiz) has a lot of experience and I never heard one bad thing about the guy. I would go to Mexico again. Plus I am only ten minutes from his office!
