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.

Weight Wise

Good news.  I received notice back from the weight wise program that I will still qualify to attend all of the sessions and stuff they offer other than the bariatric surgery side (since I've already done that!).
I will have access to nutritionists, dieticians, phsycial trainers, psych nurses for weight management... I'm glad.

I start the modules on June 23.  :)
