Video of sleeve proceedure



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I watched this video over 20 times before my sleeve, here's the link if anyone wants to see how ones done. It's probably the best one on YouTube, as I've seen several.

That's a great video! For us Band to Sleeve Revisions, here is one that is also narrated and describes the procedure as it goes along! :)

interesting...looked different than I imagined...the stomach didn't look as well defined as I thought...I thought the stomach would look more distinct, like the liver did

My procedure was conducted with the Da Vinci robotic assist. You can see it here:

If I watch the video I will not be having the surgery LOL

When I watched it, it actually eased my mind.

Well, when I watched the LAPBAND procedure I fainted, so happy I didn't get that stupid band. ,

It's actually not MY procedure. I don't know who is in that video. I just wanted to share another example of how the VSG is performed. :)

I wish it would ease my mind. I would probably faint if I watched...my husband watched and the faces he made were priceless!

Thanks so much for the video link. I've watched a few others, but agree this is the best one I've seen. It is kind of a relief to actually see it. It doesn't seem so scary now. Not scheduled till July, but am so excited.

Most all of us that had it done in MX brought a DVD home of our own procedure being done.. As well as a image of the stomach they removed to show us the size... Soooo cool!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
