I had not considered Vertical Gastric Sleeve surgery when I went for my first appointment with my bariatric surgeon. I had assumed that I would have a RNY but after some discussion with her I agreed to do some more research on the subject. Well, little did I know that there just isn't a lot of info out there on this procedure. I have purchased another book that still had this procedure labeled as "experimental". I was glad to have come across this book as it answered a lot of questions for me. The author is not a clinition but an actual "Sleeve" patient. She gives good backround info that is backed up by her personal experience. If you are considering a Vertical Gastric Sleeve procedure than this is a good place to start.
I had my sleeve surgery 12 days ago. Everything went good as long you follow your doctors and go to all the glasses. I went to classes from July 15th till my surgery in November. You learn so much and they give you a binder for everything. I have a girlfriend that we went together to the peer to peer classes, cooking classes, information class on how people will take you lossing weight even your best friends. After 12 days after surgery I was 274 and I now weigh 240. I waited for 13 years to get it due to congressed heart failure from a bad cold but now its done. I am 73 and feel great thanks to my Lord.
I wish I'd found this book at the beginning of my weight loss journey. I started reading it one year after surgery. I felt like I was reading my own story, so much great information, and right on track of what is gonna happen before during and after weight loss surgery. I recommend this book to all those seeking weight loss surgery.
I am preop for the sleeve surgery. This book gave me a unique view of what to expect in the coming months and beyond--very good "nitty-gritty" info that I haven't seen nor heard from any other source! I highly recommend this book.
I'm prepping and want to know other than clinical answers. I want the perspective from someone who will have already walked in the shoes I'm about to walk in. I have already recommended this book to another friend I've met who is considering surgery.
This book was very informative but lacked the personal caring and sharing that a patient to patient guide should have. It just tells you most of the stuff your Dr. Will tell you. My suggestion is to go on YouTube and listen to the tons of personal stories there, they are better than this book.
I read this book after doing much research on the medical aspects of the three main bariatric proedures available. What I found most helpful about this book was the first person account of her journey and the challenges and rewards of the weight loss surgery. I believe this book should be a must read for all patients considering bariatric surgery.
I was hoping to learn more about the"sleeved life" but nothing here I haven't already picked up online and on Facebook.
