I have been thinking for some years now that I would put off weight loss surgery because there was sure to be an alternative medical breakthrough any minute...I guess I have decided to stop holding my breath.
I really don't like the thought of part of my stomach being cut away though . What unknown consequences could that have? What if I needed that part later on? I guess I am just a bit of a pack rat and have a hard time clearing stuff out. The time has come though to do the deed and cut those excess organs out. I am actually very glad to have waited long enough to have the VSG as a surgical option. When I first started looking back in 2000 the severity and possible long term health consequences of the DS or RNY concerned me enough that I backed off. I am excited about getting my surgery in January and am really looking forward to a year of change
