Day 30 – A Little Bit o’ Background

I found metformin 1000 mg day a good link to share today–it’s from the Mayo Clinic website.  I keep talking about the Weight Loss Surgeries that I’ve had, providing a context without introducing the supporting actors of the show.  Mea culpa. 

As a refresher, I had the Vertical Banded Gastroplasty (stomach stapling) at age 17 and the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass in 1998 at age 21.  Because the stomach stapling was converted into the Gastric Bypass, that is the information I’ll provide here as it’s what is germaine to my current condition and weight loss efforts.

Please know that by providing a link to such comprehensive information about the Gastric Bypass procedure, I am neither encouraging anyone to pursue it, nor discouraging anyone from c0nsidering it.  It is simply a link for learning more about it.
