Tube Stomach Surgery

Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a weight loss surgery that involves removing a large part of the stomach, leaving behind a smaller, tubular stomach. This leads to weight loss by reducing the amount of food the stomach can hold. It is a popular option for men who want to improve their overall health, increase their self-confidence and achieve a fit and masculine physique. This surgery can also lead to improvements in obesity-related conditions such as diabetes and sleep apnea. The procedure is performed laparoscopically and typically takes about an hour to perform. Recovery time varies from person to person, but most patients can return to their normal activities within a few weeks.

Gastric sleeve surgery can be a powerful tool for achieving significant weight loss. The surgery works by reducing the amount of food the stomach can hold, which leads to an earlier feeling of fullness and fewer calories being absorbed. It also changes the hormones that regulate hunger and satiety. Patients can expect to lose a significant amount of weight in the first year after surgery. On average, patients lose about 60-80% of their excess weight in the first 12 to 18 months after surgery. However, weight loss can vary depending on the person's starting weight, adherence to a healthy diet and level of physical activity.

After gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, it is very important to follow a specific dietary pattern to promote weight loss and prevent complications. - Clear liquids: The patient will start with clear liquids such as water, broth and sugar-free clear fruit juice for the first few days after surgery. - Pureed foods: The patient will then move to pureed foods such as protein shakes, yogurt and pureed fruits and vegetables over the next few weeks. - Soft foods: After a few weeks the patient will be able to switch to soft foods such as cooked or canned fruits, vegetables and lean proteins. - Solid foods: Eventually, the patient will be able to tolerate solid foods again, but it is important to chew food thoroughly and eat slowly to avoid discomfort and dumping syndrome. - Protein: The patient will need to consume a high protein diet to support the healing process and maintenance of muscle mass. - Hydration: The patient will need to drink plenty of water and other non-caloric fluids to prevent dehydration and aid the healing process. It is important to note that the diet plan will be different for each individual and it is very important to follow your surgeon's instructions.
