Posted May 2, 2011

My name is Megan Sotelo. I'm 18 years old, in the 11th grade. I weighed 330 pounds when I started the program a year and a half ago and pre-op surgery, I was at 315 pounds. I plan to be below 300 pounds after the first month.

I just got the lapband three days ago and I feel like no one really knows the pain I'm going through and how much of a burden I feel like or what I feel I CAN eat or do.

I would like to talk to someone that can help me learn when to tell when I've reached my limits, tips for pain, and different positions to sit and lie down.

I'd prefer to have a male mentor because I get along better with men since I always live with my father and my brother. I'm not normally on forums and don't check often but if you want to be my mentor, send a email to Megansilvershadow@yahoo.com and invite me on Yahoo! Messenger. I'm constantly on Yahoo! Messenger, on the computer or on my phone

And a extra note...why am I seeing a Gastric Bypass surgery ad?

  Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed. I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

  Two months out from hiatal hernia repair. Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end. That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

    As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

  Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
