Hi everyone I am new to this site. I was banded 8/16/06 By Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. The whole experiance was a very possitive one and I am so glad I picked Dr. Ortiz. His people pick you up at the airport in San Diego and took my wife and I to a very nice hotel in TJ. After it is all over they returned us to the airport. I lost 20 lbs. as instructed before the implant and 10 lbs since. :(

Go under General Lap Band discussion, find the thread August Band Crew and hit last page (unless you want to read all of the posts), then hit post reply in the bottom left hand corner. Have fun, it's nice to see how others are progressing also.

      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.
