Thought I would do a shout out to all Kansas sleevers so we can help each other out during our VSG Journey. My name is Laurie...will be 50 on the 8th...hubby, 2 kids, live in SE KS but travel to KC each week at the beginning of the week for work. Will be sleeved by Dr. Kowalski at KC Bariatric Center in Lenexa. Self Pay. Very excited. How is everyone holding up and are you surving the heat?
