Kansas City Sleevers



Recommended Posts

If you are in the Kansas City area, be sure to visit Downtown Diner in Olathe. They have a bariatric menu. Just had Breakfast there and it was great. The owner Rich had sleeve surgery a couple of years ago and dropped 125 lbs. He was really frustrated that restaurants wouldn't let him order off the kids menu so he decided to come up with a solution when he opened his own place.

Thanks Dustin! I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. Hoehn, KC Bariatrics, on Aug. 22. When/where did you get sleeved? How far out are you? How did it go??

I got sleeved at KC Bariatric as well. I had Dr. Hamilton. My surgery and post op has gone extremely well. I'm two weeks postop today. By day 4 after surgery I felt great.

You'll be glad you went to KC Bariatric. They take great care of you. The nurses are fantastic.

      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. 🤞
