I update the stats currently on an "wow I have 5 minutes to spare!!" basis. Work has been mental of late and I just haven't had the chance to keep them up as often as I would like.

Your record is in the stats and the numbers currently displayed are correct. The values that were already on the first page were already correct and included your record.

17 people have recorded results against Ortiz, 2 of which eroded.

I was wondering if the said what caused the erosion? was it the port or an infection from the repositoning or what I need to have my port repositioned and I am delaying it so I was curious. Although I am having it done in the US I had the same Dr in Mexico as you. Do you think it was the DR.

I would post my info but I was just banded on May 17, 2006 by Dr. Arturo Rodriguez. I don't think that I could offer much "data". :girl_hug:

Okay, I am irritated. We have over 6,400 members on this forum. We have had 109 people come forth with simple data. Why is it so hard to share this information for a good purpose??? All it takes is a few minutes. No explaining, just the facts. And if you didn't want to post, then just PM it. Please.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
