    Default Gastric Sleeve Video (Graphic)

    I was watching a video on YouTube showing an actual laparoscopic gastric sleeve procedure.
    I viewed this before my procedure too, but still find it fascinating.

    For those that wish to view it and can "stomach it" (pun intended) the link is:


    ******* PLEASE NOTE THIS SHOWS AN ACTUAL PROCEDURE NOT AN ANIMATION! *******
    It is about 6 minutes long and was made in 2008. It is for informational purposes only.



    Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.
