Major NSVs In Only 2 Weeks Post-Op
I had my 2 week post-op visit with Dr Yatco today and I am amazed and elated by the rapid improvements to my overall health from this surgery.
The main thing that drove my decision to have VSG was my type II diabetes and high blood pressure. Both conditions required medication. And even with meds my blood glucose had crept up little by little over the last several years. That scared me. The consequences of diabetes are not pretty.
So the weight is now falling off me, I'm wearing 38w jeans, I'm never hungry (except when its time to eat), I can cross my legs, I have seemingly boundless energy, I feel amazing, I could go on but I'll stop here, you get the point.
Great as all this is the greatest benefit to me of VSG surgery is that both the diabetes and high blood pressure have resolved and I am completely off the meds. All in only 2 weeks. I am in utter amazement at how great this has been for me. If I didn't lose another ounce this would be a tremendously successful outcome for me. But in reality the weight loss has only just begun. This has truly given me a new, much better life.
My purpose for sharing this and my hope is to provide some encouragement to those considering this procedure. If you go in with the attitude that you are prepared to make permanent lifestyle changes and you choose the right surgeon you will have a life-changing outcome.
Alert!!! Mad Yatco love to follow: Props to my hero - Dr. Edward Yatco. This man is gifted. If you live in New York he should be your only choice for VSG surgery. If you live anywhere else in America he should still be your only choice, he's worth the travel.
Disclosure: The foregoing is only my humble opinion. Your results may vary, past performance does not guarantee future results. :-)
Whatever you choose, good luck and God bless.

The speed at which these long-standing diseases get immediately cured is nothing short of a miracle. I am sure even the doctors are left scratching their heads. Maybe some day it will be touted as a cure for diabetes for everyone, not just obese people. The doctors mutter something about long chain amino acids and removal of the stomach.......mutter, mutter, mutter. But it is truly a miracle. It is like we all go to Lourdes and drink the water.
