Has anyone gotten the ?Super Sleevectomy? (TGVP) with Dr. Jose Rodriguez?



Recommended Posts

When you have the vsg or super sleeve you can eat and drink at the same time which in return makes food go down easier. If I sit down and have a meal then my limits come into play very well but just like with any wls if you snack and give the food time to go down then you can eat more. I don't eat carbs so it helps to get more of the foods I want to eat. If you have any issues with an over eating disorder it doesn't just go away when you can't eat as much in a sitting. Make sure you deal with your issues with food and don't just hope they will go away.

Mellifritts,

With regard to eating and drinking at the same time, I heard that was not allowed with any wls?? Obviously that is not true, wonder if that is the case with the Vertical Sleeve Plication?? With regard to having issues with over eating, any recommendations with how to "deal with" that? I am open to anything that will set me up for being successful!!

I had the Super Sleevectomy done by Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Tijuana, Mexico. The entire surgical team was wonderful and answered all my questions. The Beliteweight staff were very knowledgeable and walked me thru the process. The INT Hospital was very nice and clean. The hospital has a cafeteria on the top floor where the companion can eat or there are places close by. At the Hotel the patients can order clear broth and Jello. The hospital keeps it on hand for all of Beliteweight's patients. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Hi, I had surgery with Dr. Jose Rodriguez last Monday, Sept 20th, in Tijuana (20 minutes from San Diego, CA border)

They were amazing with me. I went alone and all of them, nurses, doctors and the surgeon treat me realy well. Good luck

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
