What are the benefits of gastric sleeve surgery?

Gastric sleeve surgery offers major benefits like significant weight loss, reduced hunger due to lower ghrelin levels, and improvement or resolution of conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea. It’s less invasive than some other procedures, doesn’t involve implants, and generally has a quicker recovery time.

How does gastric sleeve surgery work?

Gastric sleeve surgery removes about 80% of the stomach, leaving a small tube-shaped "sleeve." This limits how much you can eat and reduces hunger by lowering ghrelin hormone levels.

Is gastric sleeve surgery safe?

Gastric sleeve surgery is generally safe and has a high success rate. With proper medical care and follow-up, most patients experience a smooth recovery and positive results.

What can I eat after gastric sleeve surgery?

After gastric sleeve surgery, you'll follow a staged diet, starting with clear liquids, then progressing to full liquids, soft foods, and eventually solid foods. You'll focus on high-protein, low-sugar foods, like lean meats, eggs, and low-fat dairy, while avoiding sugary or fatty foods. Small, frequent meals are recommended.

Will my appetite change after gastric sleeve surgery?

Yes, your appetite will likely decrease after gastric sleeve surgery. The surgery reduces the size of your stomach and lowers ghrelin, the hunger hormone, leading to a smaller appetite and feeling full more quickly.
