My journey through the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery, my challenges and all the thoughts that spill out...
About VSG
Sleeve Gastrectomy is a surgical weight loss tool in which the stomach is reduced to about 25% of its original size, by surgical removal of a large portion of the stomach, following the major curve. The open edges are then attached together (often with surgical staples, glue and possibly cauterization) to form a sleeve or tube with a banana shape. The procedure permanently reduces the size of the stomach and is performed laparoscopically and is not reversible.

yummy yummers
I made dinner tonight for hubby and I had a few bites for dinner too. I made whole wheat pasta with tuna and Parmesan cheese in it. It was fantastic. Hubby INHALED it and kept MMMMMMing. I got about 3 spoonfuls before the pain started and I had to burp. I think burping is my full signal. I chew everything to mush and swallow little bits at a time but I still get gassy. I'm not swallowing air so I guess I'll go with the full signal.
