Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
I thought we could start a list of all the abbreviations we use on here all the time. I LOVE lcat's newbie post and thought this might helpful as well. I'll start with a few I can think of:
NSV - Non Scale Victory
NUT - Your team's nutritionist
RNY - Gastric ByPass
DS - Duodenal Switch
I still wonder if DH means Darling Husband?
Please add any that you know that I don't. I know a list like this would have helped me when I started on here.
Thanks!!

DS, yeah, means dear hubby, or darling hubby, or damn hubby, :) depending upon the context :)
Also can be Dear Son, etc.
There is also DD dear daughter etc
and DW, dear wife, etc
And many other forms! :) :)
Let's see, there is also
SV = Scale Victory
INS = Insurance
PCP = Primary care physician
And If I'd not already used up my brain power for the day I could think of some more! LOL!
