Has anyone gotten the ?Super Sleevectomy? (TGVP) with Dr. Jose Rodriguez?



Recommended Posts

When you have the vsg or super sleeve you can eat and drink at the same time which in return makes food go down easier. If I sit down and have a meal then my limits come into play very well but just like with any wls if you snack and give the food time to go down then you can eat more. I don't eat carbs so it helps to get more of the foods I want to eat. If you have any issues with an over eating disorder it doesn't just go away when you can't eat as much in a sitting. Make sure you deal with your issues with food and don't just hope they will go away.

Mellifritts,

With regard to eating and drinking at the same time, I heard that was not allowed with any wls?? Obviously that is not true, wonder if that is the case with the Vertical Sleeve Plication?? With regard to having issues with over eating, any recommendations with how to "deal with" that? I am open to anything that will set me up for being successful!!

I had the Super Sleevectomy done by Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Tijuana, Mexico. The entire surgical team was wonderful and answered all my questions. The Beliteweight staff were very knowledgeable and walked me thru the process. The INT Hospital was very nice and clean. The hospital has a cafeteria on the top floor where the companion can eat or there are places close by. At the Hotel the patients can order clear broth and Jello. The hospital keeps it on hand for all of Beliteweight's patients. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Hi, I had surgery with Dr. Jose Rodriguez last Monday, Sept 20th, in Tijuana (20 minutes from San Diego, CA border)

They were amazing with me. I went alone and all of them, nurses, doctors and the surgeon treat me realy well. Good luck

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
