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

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
