Study Aims Specifically with our Healthy Weight Management patients that are pursuing sleeve gastrectomy surgery, the investigators would like to determine if the Fitbit is associated with health outcomes in this population. Primary Outcome • Percentage of excess weight loss - Does the use of a Fitbit positively affect the percentage of excess body weight loss in vertical sleeve gastrectomy patients? Secondary Outcomes * Lifestyle changes and Exercise patterns - Does the use of a Fitbit foster positive lifestyle and exercise pattern changes in post-operative VSG patients? * Resolution of comorbidity - Does the use of a Fitbit positively affect patient health via reduction of co-morbid conditions associated with morbid obesity following VSG surgery?
