Video of sleeve proceedure



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I watched this video over 20 times before my sleeve, here's the link if anyone wants to see how ones done. It's probably the best one on YouTube, as I've seen several.

That's a great video! For us Band to Sleeve Revisions, here is one that is also narrated and describes the procedure as it goes along! :)

interesting...looked different than I imagined...the stomach didn't look as well defined as I thought...I thought the stomach would look more distinct, like the liver did

My procedure was conducted with the Da Vinci robotic assist. You can see it here:

If I watch the video I will not be having the surgery LOL

When I watched it, it actually eased my mind.

Well, when I watched the LAPBAND procedure I fainted, so happy I didn't get that stupid band. ,

It's actually not MY procedure. I don't know who is in that video. I just wanted to share another example of how the VSG is performed. :)

I wish it would ease my mind. I would probably faint if I watched...my husband watched and the faces he made were priceless!

Thanks so much for the video link. I've watched a few others, but agree this is the best one I've seen. It is kind of a relief to actually see it. It doesn't seem so scary now. Not scheduled till July, but am so excited.

Most all of us that had it done in MX brought a DVD home of our own procedure being done.. As well as a image of the stomach they removed to show us the size... Soooo cool!

      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. 🤞
