Just something I want to share! I was explaining gastric bypass to my neighbour, I told her I would start off with a pouch the size of an egg but it would enlagre after a year to "about a cup" size. My friend standing nearby asked me why I said my tummy would become a "buttercup"
"about a cup" = "buttercup" I had a really good laugh - on the day of my surgery I will be getting a little BUTTERCUP!!!!!!!!!
