Has anyone asked their surgeon if they would take a picture of their stomach after being removed? Just curious if anyone is as weird as me (according to my husband). Lol

My surgeon actually wanted to give me a video of the entire procedure. I opted out of that one haha

I did! They forgot lol

I think you should be able to keep it.....Like a tooth.

That would have been cool to see the video! Of course watching My 600-lb Life is just about the same.

Or make a wine holder/bladder out of it you could take to outdoor festivals.

I've got pictures of my stomach pouch before , during and after. I nearly died when I saw it as I had no idea he was giving me bloody photos of it lol
I can see where he fixed my hiatus hernia and where he fixed in place my minimiser ring

I was mainly concerned about my liver (and asked my surgeon to show video/photos of it), which I have a high res photo paper of:

I would have liked to see video of the whole thing being done, but it's cool seeing this.. likely the only clear picture I'll ever see inside my abdominal cavity.

I wonder why you don't get to keep it if you ask. It's a piece of YOUR body.

My guess is for biopsy and proper disposal
