    Frequently Asked Questions

    1What is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
    Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical procedure used to treat obesity. During this surgery, a large portion of the stomach is removed, reducing its size and reshaping it into a tube-like structure. This helps in reducing the amount of food intake, creating a feeling of fullness, and promoting weight loss.
    2Who is a Candidate for Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
    Gastric sleeve surgery is typically suitable for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) over 40 or those with a BMI between 35 and 40 who have obesity-related health issues such as diabetes or hypertension. Candidates should have tried other weight loss methods like diet and exercise without success.
    3What are the Risks of Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
    Like any surgical procedure, gastric sleeve surgery carries certain risks. These include infection, bleeding, leakage, blood clots, and complications related to anesthesia. Postoperative risks can include nutritional deficiencies, stomach problems, and acid reflux. It is important to follow your doctor's advice before and after the surgery to minimize these risks.
    4How Should One Eat After Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
    Post-surgery, dietary habits need to change significantly. A liquid diet is typically followed for the first few weeks, then soft foods are introduced. Gradually, solid foods are reintroduced into the diet. It is important to focus on a high-protein diet, ensure adequate fluid intake, and regularly take vitamin and mineral supplements.
    5How Much Weight Can Be Lost with Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
    Patients typically lose 50-70% of their excess weight within the first year after gastric sleeve surgery. However, weight loss can vary from person to person and is dependent on adherence to post-surgery dietary and lifestyle changes. Regular follow-up and doctor consultations are crucial for healthy weight loss and maintaining long-term results.
