Hello there!

[Mysstwalker]

Howdeh! My name is Michelle, and I am a sex addic....oh wait, wrong group heh. NOT REALLY, JUST A TWISTED SENSE OF HUMOR! Ok, I will behave.

My name is Michelle, as you know already lol, and I had my surgery on January 30th 2008 with Dr. Krahn here in Riverside/San Bernardino. I had lap RNY plus he put on some kind of silastic ring or something, think its a Fobi something, anyways, since my surgery I have lost 325 pounds!

Over time, I shall publish more more of my exciting death defying stupendous incredible adventures in WLS! <not really, im a stay at home divorced mom that was too fat to have a life, with an 20 year old daughter, but that has changed!!> Look forward to posting with all you fine people!

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass A type of gastric bypass procedure which combines restrictive and malabsorption techniques - meaning, it reduces the amount of food a patient can comfortably eat (restriction), and also reduces the amount of calories that can be digested in the small intestine (malabsorption). This combination of bariatric methods leads to greater weight loss and the roux-en-y procedure is seen as one of the best ways to treat clinically severe obesity. See WLS Videos for animated surgery technique.
