I was looking for a forum where I could read about other people’s experiences with a fairly new procedure that doesn’t have much information. It is called the ESG or endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty which simulates the gastric sleeve without the incisions or overnight hospital stay. It is less invasive although not as effective as the LSG. Nonetheless I wouldn’t qualify for the invasive sleeve and opted for a noninvasive way to lose weight. This forum has a group with support and a plethora of information I couldn’t find anywhere else. So thankful to have found it.
