Done with Surgery

I was able to talk with Ed and he said that the surgery went well and he is doing good! They have him up and walking around. Yeah! They took a lot of pictures and I will post them as soon as I get them. Good Job Ed, get some rest!

Today is the Day!

Ed's Surgery is Today! I haven't heard from him yet. We are all anxious to hear how things went so I will try to update you as soon as I find out.

Ed we hope everything went well! We are all thinking about you.

What is Gastric Bypass?

The Stomach is converted into a small pouch that holds approximately 2 ounces or 1/4 cup. This limits the amount of food that can be eaten, yet leaves the patient feeling full and satisfied on very little food. Having less food naturally results in reduced caloric intake and weight loss usually follows.
