UPDATE FROM MY SURGEON

  • Popular Post

Just had a final discussion with my surgeon.

He tried his best to explain the way he does the bypass.

He said the 120cm is the limb of the bypass

& He does a small thin pouch vs a round one?

He said the thinner one is safer and easier to heal because less distance for food to travel?

Should be same volume as pouch just slimmer like a mini sleeve then of course the bypassing.

Getting excited for the bypass I'm 55 lbs down but still plan on losing another 70-80 yet

Thanks guys for all your kind words
