My mom has been battling stage 3 pancreatic cancer and 2 days ago, she completed her 4th chemotherapy session. She has 2 more to go before they assess it to remove the tumor.
She was diagnosed on November 28, 2023. She began chemotherapy December 26, 2023 and was admitted to the emergency room later that day from complications. She was discharged December 29, 2023 and my family came down to Florida on December 30, 2023.
On her birthday, January 2, 2024, after her follow-up meeting with her oncologist. She was feeling defeated about how things had been happening since her diagnosis. She vocalized no desire to live in front of us (including my 12 year old daughter (her only grandchild)).
My family (my spouse, daughter & myself), at the suggestion of my spouse made the commitment to be her ongoing support system. This is so she could make whatever decision she wanted regarding how she chooses to proceed with her diagnosis.
I personally committed to split time between our 2 bedroom home in Durham, North Carolina & her 1 bedroom apartment in Fort Lauderdale, Florida to make sure we could commit to her health treatment planned as it began taking effect on December 26, 2023.
We did not request anything from anybody and agreed to take on the additional financial burdens it would place on us to fulfill this commitment, (despite knowing we weren't in the financial situation to do so).
We arranged things so my spouse and daughter could return to school in NC on January 8th. I stayed back with my mom for that chemo week. Since I'm a business owner with time flexibility, I would make the trips and stay with my mom throughout the treatment windows in Florida.
This agreement means renting a car for an one-way trip to North Carolina or Florida weekly (a $200-275 expense & 11-14 hours of travel time per trip). The first time we brought her up to NC ever, my spouse drove our car down to get us and then shared in the responsibility of driving back to NC. It cost us $250 in fuel and food for the trip. We realized it gave my mom & I more flexibility in travel days, saved on time spent on the road, and cost the same to just rent a car (Chevrolet Malibu) for each trip.
This agreement meant now sourcing food with all my mom's health dietary restrictions (from having a gastric sleeve) & her diagnosis dietary restrictions for 2 households. As well as me preparing most meals for both homes while I'm in and away from NC. In addition, replacing gluten with gluten-free alternatives in the diet. (A lot more coconut and almond based supplies). Cooking meals for a family of four that works and can be considered Keto-friendly and cancer friendly and while trying to stay under a budget of $300-$350 monthly.
Since we've implemented this plan to be her support system, all hell has broken loose in our lives. (My mom calls it just life lifing though).
On Martin Luther King weekend, began a school district wide issue in my Daughter's school system. Different staff began protesting and calling out of work (which we personally support their stances) due to significant pay discrepancies being communicated.
This immediately meant unreliable transportation for my daughter getting to & from school 25+ minutes away. My spouse teaches in a different school system 20 minutes in the opposite direction of my daughter's school, and we only have one car. Since she started middle school this year, their school school arrival times are the same. But her bus pick-up time solved the problem there. So there is now an ongoing possibility of him being late to work at his school daily.
On our first trip back down for treatment, it went perfect with the rental, until I realized after returning the rental car that I had lost my business cellphone inside of the rental car. (It hasn't been found by Budget's staff during cleaning and the car had already been rented out again less than 2 hours after being dropped off.) So I still have to pay to get that phone replaced.
This is compiled on top of this being my businesses' slow season and having no reserves to catch the $950 overhead in monthly expenses that comes from inventory space, business insurance, & hosting email domains, office assistant services & website. We only one future booking on the calendar and it's for a new build. January there was only $900 made. $300 had to go towards having to subrent out the job because it over lapped with chemo treatment and would cost twice as much to keep in-house with temp staff. $150 went towards repaying our transaction based capital funding loan from Shopify. $120 went towards getting 2 items of inventory for the second booking.
So I borrowed funds from something I couldn't afford to take from just to keep all of our inventory spaces secured.
My Chase credit card is over the limit by $140 and a payment is due today. My secure loan payment with Navy Federal is also due today and I don't have any of it. My business insurance payment of $200 is due tomorrow, and I don't have that either.
And the difference in the cost for our last car rental to come down for chemo week is still due back to the card I used for it. And I have to pay 200 for the car rental to go back up to NC Monday.
Then back in NC, this week on Tuesday, our only car's engine light came on. It was taken into our dealership on Wednesday morning to find out why. That diagnostic end up costing $250. We finally got answers Friday afternoon. Our car has 139k miles on it, and we're being told the engine needs to be replaced. It has been quoted $8k to have a used engine put into it or over $12k to have a new engine with a lifetime warranty put into our 2016 Chevrolet Cruze premier.
This car gets everyone to school and has been how my spouse has been supplementing his income working for the school system and parks & rec by doing Shipt. So now income has been reduced even more and expenses have drastically increased more.
MY business first official rental booking for this year took place yesterday, and that was supposed to be able to be delivered using our car. Since it's still in the shop, we had to book a last-minute $200 car rental for my spouse and daughter to fulfill the booking delivery yesterday and to be able to go back to do the rental booking pick-up today.
Emergency fund is pretty much exhausted after this week and the savings, too. Then today, with a little downtime, I learn that all my email payments were due on MLK weekend. This resulted in 5 email domains (3 important ones needed for tax filings) to be canceled by godaddy after 2 weeks of missing the payment notifications. I've had the email plan for almost 10 years, and it initially only cost me $14/month for all 5 emails. But because it was canceled and the package no longer exists, it cost me $29/month to have them reactivate and restore the 3 important emails or over $70/month to get them all reactivated. I only activated the 3 and paid it up until April for $59, so I don't miss its before filing taxes.
This week in Florida, my mom's cancer treatment visits started charging her a copay. Due to an error that recently took place on the backend by her health insurance. It's taking longer to resolve it with then despite them already seeing that it'san error in their coordination of benefits process. This week alone, we had to pay $325 in co-pays just to avoid the chemotherapy and white blood cell visits at the oncologist from being canceled by their office. The error is still causing a previous $200 outstanding balance to reflect on her account.
TODAY, it all became too much to hold in any longer. I have never had to face this many trials all at once while still having ongoing ones coming my way. My heart, mind & spirit is heavy right now. I need GOD to do something supernatural for my family in this season. In a way, only God can show up. I'm not broken. My faith isn't shaken. We're not going back on our commitment. Cancer won't defeat my family! We're breaking so many generational cycles right now. Cancer was just the catalyst to expedite the process.

I hate to add onto this Kate Middleton discourse, but as someone who is in medical, it is quite curious. Because they said she had abdominal surgery to "correct something" and wants it to remain private (as it should), and not only that, but she had to be in the hospital for 10-14 days. That tells me, usually, it's about two things: it's either crohns or correcting weight loss surgery. Kate is a skinny tall woman. Almost too skinny for her height. I think they said she's like 5'10" or 5"11". But everyone's body is different. So you really can't always say "well they are this height, so their BMI should be this." Right?
However, Kate use to have a lot more meat on her. Even when they had their engagement announcement and she wore that iconic blue dress. As it got closer to her wedding, she get skinnier and skinnier. And she remained like that. When she was pregnant, she looked healthier. After pregnancies, some will lose weight and some won't snap back right away. Sometimes it takes a full year for your body to recover after pregnancy. Some people do lose a LOT of weight, especially if they are breast feeding. Breast feeding burns a lot of calories. This girl got sickly skinny. Especially after she had Prince Louis, her last baby. She will wear these long fancy gowns and you can just see the bones sticking out of her chest sometimes and her hips. Mermaid gowns are usually more flattering on taller women. We all know the stories about Diana. We know that a lot of the royals like to be well kept. They are in the public eye and critic all the time. Diana ate like a bird sadly even after she got over making her self sick. We also know too that Kate, while she was dating William, was just ripped apart by the media.
I highly suspect that:
1. Kate got a gastric sleeve that went haywire and she got it corrected. A lot of the times those don't hold, because the sleeve will get air pockets which will cause the person to get sick a lot. You can correct it, but there is a good chance that it's going to do it again. Thus having it removed is the best option.
2. Kate had gastric surgery and again, there are complications. A lot of people, especially smaller people who don't need the surgery, will constantly get sick. It's a very painful operation because they are re-routing your intestines etc etc. They have to limit what they eat. They have to cut out a lot of foods. There are people that get so sick and frail. With this surgery, it's not as easy to correct like the sleeve. There is a chance your body will NEVER go back to normal and you may have 10-20 years to live depending on the severity of it.
3. Kate may have crohns disease. Which is understandable if she wants to keep it private. Because a lot of people think it's always caused by starving yourself. But it is a very heraditory disease. And being in the public eye and the way that newspapers love to run with lies... Yeah, I don't blame her if this is the case. Especially since again, she's tall and very skinny for her height.
Deadass who cares what this woman doing or why she’s missing.
Bottom of my heart I do not care about to royals

A revolution in weight loss is apparently underway. It started in 2021, when the FDA approved the diabetes drug semaglutide for weight loss. The weekly injectable—sold under the brand name Wegovy—can help users lose 5 to 10 percent of their body weight, leading commentators to describe the drug as both a “medical breakthrough” and a “silver bullet” for obesity. Elon Musk says he’s taking it, Kim Kardashian is rumored to be using it, and everyone from Hollywood to the Hamptons reportedly wants a prescription. 
Soon, there will be a new weight loss medication on the block—and it’s even more potent than its peers. Last fall, the FDA fast-tracked the review process for using tirzepatide as a weight loss drug after a clinical trial showed that people with BMIs labeled “overweight” or “obese” lost a staggering 22.5 percent of their body weight on the highest dose. If all goes according to plan, that will make Mounjaro the latest in a fast-growing biomedical sector—spanning everything from bariatric surgery to deep brain stimulation for binge-eating—that aims to combat, if not cure, the problem of “excess” weight. 
For pharmaceutical companies, the race to market is financially motivated: Wegovy and Mounjaro cost more than $1,000 a month. Weight loss drugs are rarely covered by insurance, but people who can afford them have proven they’re willing to pay. And the market seems effectively limitless: Despite an ongoing “war on obesity,” more than 1.9 billion adults globally are considered overweight or obese, and the number of prospective users is growing every year. Now doctors—desperate to treat what is widely seen as an “obesity epidemic”—are coming on board. In January, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended such medications for kids as young as 12. 
The victorious narratives gilding drugs like Mounjaro are already being positioned as a direct challenge to fat activism. For decades, the movement has pushed for social and economic opportunity for people of all sizes through civil rights, fat pride and liberation, and biomedical evidence itself. Thanks to prominent voices like Audrey Gordon and Michael Hobbes, many people now know that “lifestyle changes” like calorie restriction and exercise fail to produce sustained weight loss for 97 percent of people and that many dieters end up gaining back more weight than they lost. But what happens to the strength of these arguments when a weight loss drug seems to work?
Like other purported weight loss solutions, Mounjaro promises “to fix weight stigma by making you thinner, instead of removing the stigma,” says Susanne Johnson, a fat activist and family nurse practitioner in Pennsylvania. In so doing, these drugs and surgeries further exacerbate anti-fat discrimination. Instead of criticizing people in larger bodies for their perceived lack of willpower—that old “calories in, calories out” adage—people can now blame those in bigger bodies for something more akin to a techno-pessimist, or even anti-science, stance: “Just take the miracle cure!” 
The history of the weight loss industry is more akin to prospecting for gold or investing in crypto than transplanting organs and developing antibiotics; less a story of scientific progress than an endless cycle of wild speculation, where boom inevitably gives way to bust. Fen-Phen was a miracle until it was linked to heart valve damage. Intermittent fasting was going to fix what caloric restriction couldn’t until researchers showed the two produce exactly the same results. And then there’s the complicated case of bariatric surgery.
From their inception in the 1950s, operations like gastric bypass (which reroutes food away from the stomach, inducing malabsorption) and gastric sleeve (which involves partially amputating the stomach so it holds less food and produces fewer hunger hormones) have been sold as a potential panacea, says Lisa Du Breuil, a clinical social worker at Massachusetts General Hospital. While fewer than 1 percent of people who qualify actually undergo bariatric surgery, those who do can lose up to 70 percent of their “excess” weight (or the weight above a BMI of 24.9). 
But Du Breuil, who specializes in eating disorders and substance abuse disorders, has seen some of the worst of bariatric’s side effects. People can develop dumping syndrome—wherein sugar-rich meals leave the stomach too quickly, causing sweating, dizziness, rapid heart rate, and vomiting. Gastric bypass in particular raises the risk of postoperative alcohol abuse. Rates of suicide and self-harming behaviors also rise in the years after bariatric surgery. And even when people follow strict post-operative diets, malnutrition, tooth loss, gout, and new or resurging eating disorders are possible. “It can be really challenging to get a full picture,” Du Breuil says. She learns about new side effects all the time.
Semaglutide and tirzepatide—both part of a larger family of GLP-1 receptor agonists—were developed for diabetes management at lower doses. When pharmaceutical companies noticed their trial participants were also losing weight, they realized “if we can turn the volume up to 11, we can really enhance this side effect,” says Johnson, the nurse. “That means you’re also turning up the other side effects.” 
The primary complaints from users of Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro sound like the kind of thing you can fix with a bottle (or three) of Pepto Bismol: nausea, upset stomach, diarrhea, and what one patient called “power vomiting.” But these might be less like classic “side effects” of a drug than a mechanism of weight loss itself, as The Guardian recently reported. By making the feeling of eating (and, in some cases, even hydrating) actively disgusting to the user, the drug curbs their consumption—similar to the experience of bariatric patients, who can only fit a few ounces of food in their stomachs at a time. 
The list of complications doesn’t end there. For example, both GLP-1 receptor agonists may increase the risk of thyroid cancer—one of the many BMI-linked diseases that supposedly makes weight loss absolutely imperative for people in larger bodies. And there’s good reason to believe that other side effects will reveal themselves in years to come, as the number of long-term users grows. 
The biggest surprise for many prospective patients is that long-term weight loss isn’t guaranteed—a reflection, perhaps, of the faulty assumption that people are obese because they overeat. Current estimates suggest that the average bariatric surgery patient regains 30 percent of the weight they lost in the 10 years after surgery. One in four regain all of their weight in that time. And 20 percent of people don’t respond to surgery in the first place. 
The same is true for GLP-1 receptor agonists: If you stop injecting, the weight returns. 
In case it wasn’t clear by now, biomedical weight loss interventions often mimic the deadly logic of anorexia, bulimia, or other forms of disordered eating, says Erin Harrop, a clinical social worker and researcher. Harrop would know. At the height of their own eating disorder, Harrop wished they could fill their stomach with air instead of food, or cut their stomach out, or wire their jaw shut. Later, they learned these things exist—in the form of gastric balloons, gastric sleeves, and even a magnetic jaw trap. 
It’s no surprise, then, that some people who undergo bariatric surgery experience a resurgence of a preexisting eating disorder, or develop a new one. Frequent vomiting, never knowing what foods will upset your stomach, and feeling pressure to maintain a post-surgical weight—“you can create an eating disorder that way,” Du Briel says.
But semaglutide and tirzepatide promise to fulfill an even stranger fantasy: eliminating appetite itself. While a drug like Mounjaro works on numerous fronts—including preventing the body from storing fat and “browning” existing adipose tissue—it’s the feeling of being untethered from desire that seems to fascinate patients and physicians alike. People for whom the drug works often say, “I forget to eat,” says Fatima Cody Stanford, an obesity medicine specialist at Massachusetts General Hospital’s Weight Center. 
If doctors really believe that obesity is the greater of any two evils, then this approach makes sense. When it comes to bariatric surgery, for example, a review of the medical literature suggests it is, on balance, associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality—or death of any cause*—*compared to patients with high BMIs who don’t go under the knife (though such studies are profoundly limited, as they often do not control for social factors, like income or education). Many hope that semaglutide and tirzepatide will one day prove just as vitalizing.
But eating disorders kill too. In many contexts, sustained hunger is considered a travesty. And desire—for food, or anything else—is a great way to know you’re alive. “It’s wild to me that we see no appetite as a positive thing,” says Shira Rosenbluth, an eating disorder therapist who works with people of all sizes. Anna Toonk agrees: “I realized that there are worse things than being fat,” she told The Cut last fall. “The worst thing you can be is wanting to barf all the time.” 
Ultimately, the proliferation of drugs like Mounjaro means medicine is not only in the business of dictating “normal” weights (a thing it still hasn’t quite figured out), but “normal” appetites. What was once an intuitive process, in which your body tells you what it needs, became a dictate under diet culture: You tell your body what it can have. Now medicine promises a radical reset: With the right drug, your body will hunger for nothing at all.
Weight loss technology can’t be stopped entirely—nor should it be. Everyone has the right to choose what they want to do with their bodies. But informed consent is built on information, and we may not have enough. Mounjaro was fast-tracked by the FDA based on studies designed to observe weight loss over just 72 weeks, a small fraction of the time real patients will be on the drug. At the very least, patients should be informed that in the first years after a drug hits the market, they are participants in an ongoing experiment. 
As biomedicine’s war on obesity continues, people must work harder to combat anti-fat bias—not on a technicality, but as part of the expansive vision of justice fat activists began articulating more than 50 years ago. For semaglutide, tirzepatide, bariatric surgery, and their ilk are neither miracles nor cures. There have always been fat people, and there always will be, whether they’re “non-responders” to treatment, refuseniks, or languishing on the waitlist. Notably, even those who experience dramatic weight loss after surgery or on injectables may still be overweight or obese, depending where they started. 
Perhaps most importantly, the American weight loss discourse must move away from a reflexive scientism, which has enabled biomedicine to subject the entirety of human experience to its single-minded scrutiny. Weight, like almost every aspect of embodiment, is not an exclusively biological phenomenon or a clear-cut medical “problem” to solve. It is shaped by countless factors, like power distribution in society, personal psychology, and that most frightening of forces: the desire for more.

Common Myths and Misconceptions About Sleeve Gastrectomy
Tumblr media
Myth 1: Sleeve Gastrectomy is the Same as Gastric Bypass
Reality:
Sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass are two distinct procedures. In sleeve gastrectomy, about 75–80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a tube-shaped stomach about the size and shape of a banana. This significantly reduces the stomach’s capacity and limits food intake. Gastric bypass, on the other hand, involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting a portion of the small intestine to this new pouch, which alters the digestive process. Both procedures have their unique benefits and risks, and the choice between them depends on individual patient needs and medical advice.
Myth 2: Sleeve Gastrectomy is a Quick Fix for Weight Loss
Reality:
Sleeve gastrectomy is not a quick fix or an easy way out. It is a tool to assist with weight loss but requires significant lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and regular exercise. Successful long-term weight loss depends on the patient’s commitment to these changes. The surgery helps by reducing hunger and portion sizes, but maintaining weight loss requires ongoing effort and dedication.
Myth 3: You Will Never Be Able to Eat Normally Again
Reality:
After sleeve gastrectomy, patients will need to adjust their eating habits, especially in the initial months post-surgery. However, over time, most patients can eat a wide variety of foods in smaller portions. The key is to focus on nutrient-dense foods and avoid overeating. The surgery helps control hunger and portion sizes, but it does not mean patients will never enjoy their favorite foods again.
Myth 4: The Surgery is Risky and Complicated
Reality:
Like any surgery, sleeve gastrectomy carries risks, but it is considered safe and effective when performed by an experienced surgeon. The procedure is typically done laparoscopically, which involves small incisions and a faster recovery time compared to open surgery. The risks are minimized with proper preoperative evaluation, surgical expertise, and postoperative care. It’s important to discuss any concerns with your surgeon to understand the potential risks and benefits.
Myth 5: Weight Loss After Sleeve Gastrectomy is Temporary
Reality:
Sleeve gastrectomy can result in significant and sustained weight loss. Studies have shown that most patients maintain substantial weight loss for many years post-surgery. However, long-term success depends on the patient’s adherence to a healthy lifestyle, including proper diet and regular physical activity. The surgery provides a powerful tool to aid in weight loss, but long-term maintenance requires effort and commitment.
Myth 6: Sleeve Gastrectomy is Only for Extremely Obese People
Reality:
While sleeve gastrectomy is often recommended for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher, it can also be beneficial for those with a BMI of 35–39.9 who have obesity-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea. The decision to undergo surgery is based on a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s health, weight, and medical history.

Life After Gastric Sleeve Surgery: Trendy Unhealthy Diets to Avoid
Introduction
Gastric sleeve surgery, a popular weight loss procedure, involves the removal of a portion of the stomach to reduce its size and capacity. While this surgery can be transformative for individuals struggling with obesity, it requires significant lifestyle changes, particularly in dietary habits. In the post-surgery phase, making informed and healthy food choices becomes paramount to ensure successful weight loss maintenance and overall well-being.
Understanding Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a minimally invasive procedure where a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach pouch. This reduces the stomach’s capacity and restricts the amount of food it can hold, leading to earlier feelings of fullness and reduced calorie intake. While this surgical intervention aids in weight loss, it also alters the digestive process and can impact nutrient absorption, emphasizing the need for careful dietary planning.
Importance of Healthy Post-Surgery Diets
Following gastric sleeve surgery, adopting a nutritious and balanced diet is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it facilitates sustainable weight loss by supporting the body’s nutritional needs while promoting satiety and reducing the risk of overeating. Additionally, adhering to a healthy diet can help prevent complications such as dumping syndrome, nutrient deficiencies, and malnutrition, which are common concerns post-surgery.
Trendy Unhealthy Diets
Keto Diet
The ketogenic diet, characterized by high fat, moderate protein, and low carbohydrate intake, has gained popularity for its purported weight loss benefits. However, for individuals who have undergone gastric sleeve surgery, the high-fat nature of the keto diet can pose challenges. Since the surgery reduces stomach size and alters digestion, consuming excessive amounts of fat may lead to digestive discomfort, nausea, and other gastrointestinal issues. Moreover, relying heavily on fats for energy may not provide the essential nutrients needed for optimal recovery and health post-surgery.
Juice Cleanses
Juice cleanses, often marketed as a quick fix for weight loss and detoxification, involve consuming only fruit and vegetable juices for a designated period. While these cleanses may result in rapid weight loss, they are not suitable for individuals who have undergone gastric sleeve surgery. Juice-only diets lack essential nutrients such as protein, fiber, and healthy fats, which are crucial for supporting healing, maintaining muscle mass, and preventing nutritional deficiencies post-surgery. Furthermore, the high sugar content in fruit juices can spike blood sugar levels and may contribute to dumping syndrome in gastric sleeve patients.
Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting, a dietary approach that alternates between periods of eating and fasting, has gained popularity for its potential health benefits, including weight loss and improved metabolic health. However, for gastric sleeve patients, adhering to strict fasting protocols may pose challenges and risks. The surgery already restricts stomach capacity, making it difficult to consume large meals during feeding windows. Additionally, prolonged fasting periods can increase the risk of nutrient deficiencies and malnutrition, compromising post-surgery recovery and overall health.
Alternative Healthy Eating Approaches
Balanced Diet
Instead of following restrictive and potentially harmful diets, gastric sleeve patients should focus on adopting a balanced eating plan that emphasizes whole, nutrient-rich foods. A balanced diet includes adequate protein, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, supporting optimal healing, energy levels, and weight management post-surgery. Consulting with a registered dietitian or nutritionist can help customize a meal plan that meets individual nutritional needs and promotes long-term success.
Mindful Eating
Practicing mindful eating involves paying attention to hunger and satiety cues, savoring each bite, and cultivating a positive relationship with food. For gastric sleeve patients, mindful eating can promote better digestion, portion control, and food enjoyment. By being present and intentional during meals, individuals can make conscious choices that support their health goals and prevent overeating or emotional eating behaviors.
Small, Frequent Meals
Eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can help gastric sleeve patients manage hunger, prevent discomfort, and support optimal nutrient absorption. By spacing meals evenly and focusing on nutrient-dense foods, individuals can stabilize blood sugar levels, maintain energy levels, and avoid overloading the stomach. Planning ahead and portioning meals accordingly can facilitate adherence to this eating pattern and promote long-term weight loss maintenance.
Conclusion
In conclusion, life after gastric sleeve surgery requires careful attention to dietary choices to ensure successful weight loss and overall well-being. While trendy unhealthy diets may promise quick results, they often fail to address the unique nutritional needs and challenges faced by gastric sleeve patients. Instead, prioritizing a balanced diet, mindful eating practices, and small, frequent meals can promote sustainable weight loss, optimal recovery, and a healthier relationship with food post-surgery. By making informed and intentional food choices, individuals can embark on a journey towards lasting health and vitality after gastric sleeve surgery.

The Latest Advancements in Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Delhi
Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a popular weight-loss surgery that has gained significant attention worldwide. In Delhi, the medical community has embraced this procedure with enthusiasm, integrating the latest advancements to enhance patient outcomes and safety. This blog delves into the most recent developments in  best gastric sleeve surgery in Delhi, highlighting innovations, techniques, and the benefits they offer.
Tumblr media
Understanding Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Gastric sleeve surgery involves removing a large portion of the stomach, leaving a tube-like structure or "sleeve." This significantly reduces the stomach's capacity, leading to decreased food intake and promoting weight loss. The procedure is typically performed laparoscopically, which involves small incisions and the use of a camera to guide the surgery, making it minimally invasive compared to traditional open surgeries.
Advancements in Gastric Sleeve Surgery
1. Enhanced Laparoscopic Techniques
One of the most significant advancements in gastric sleeve surgery is the refinement of laparoscopic techniques. Surgeons in Delhi are now using high-definition cameras and improved surgical instruments, which provide better visibility and precision during the procedure. These advancements reduce the risk of complications, minimize scarring, and promote faster recovery times for patients.
2. Robotic-Assisted Surgery
Robotic-assisted surgery is another groundbreaking development in the field of gastric sleeve surgery. The use of robotic systems, such as the Da Vinci Surgical System, allows for greater dexterity and control. Surgeons can perform more precise movements, which is particularly beneficial in complex cases. Robotic-assisted surgery also enhances the surgeon's ability to navigate around vital structures, reducing the risk of injury and improving overall outcomes.
3. Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS)
Traditional laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery typically involves multiple small incisions. However, the introduction of Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) has revolutionized the approach. SILS involves making a single incision, usually at the navel, which significantly reduces visible scarring and postoperative pain. Patients who undergo SILS often experience quicker recovery times and improved cosmetic results.
4. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols are a set of guidelines designed to optimize patient care and expedite recovery. In Delhi, many hospitals have adopted ERAS protocols for gastric sleeve surgery. These protocols include preoperative counseling, optimized pain management, and early mobilization after surgery. The implementation of ERAS protocols has been shown to reduce hospital stays, lower complication rates, and improve patient satisfaction.
5. Use of Advanced Imaging Techniques
Advanced imaging techniques, such as 3D imaging and virtual reality, are being integrated into the preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance of gastric sleeve surgery. These technologies allow surgeons to create detailed maps of the patient's anatomy, leading to more accurate and personalized surgical plans. Intraoperative imaging can also help surgeons make real-time adjustments, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
6. Bariatric Endoscopy
Bariatric endoscopy is an emerging field that offers minimally invasive solutions for managing complications and performing revisions of gastric sleeve surgery. Endoscopic techniques can be used to treat leaks, strictures, and other postoperative issues without the need for additional surgeries. This approach minimizes patient discomfort and reduces the risks associated with traditional surgical interventions.
7. Telemedicine and Remote Monitoring
The advent of telemedicine and remote monitoring has transformed postoperative care for gastric sleeve surgery patients in Delhi. Patients can now have virtual consultations with their surgeons, reducing the need for frequent in-person visits. Remote monitoring devices can track vital signs and other health metrics, allowing for timely interventions if any issues arise. This technology ensures continuous care and support, enhancing patient outcomes and convenience.
Benefits of the Latest Advancements
1. Improved Safety
The integration of advanced technologies and techniques in gastric sleeve surgery has significantly improved patient safety. Enhanced visualization, precision instruments, and robotic assistance reduce the risk of surgical errors and complications. As a result, patients can undergo the procedure with greater confidence and peace of mind.
2. Reduced Recovery Time
Minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopic and SILS, along with the implementation of ERAS protocols, have shortened recovery times for patients. This means that individuals can return to their normal activities and enjoy the benefits of weight loss more quickly. Faster recovery also translates to less time spent in the hospital and a lower risk of postoperative complications.
3. Better Cosmetic Outcomes
The use of single-incision techniques and advanced suturing methods has improved the cosmetic outcomes of gastric sleeve surgery. Patients are left with minimal scarring, which boosts their confidence and satisfaction with the procedure. The focus on aesthetics, combined with effective weight loss, enhances the overall quality of life for patients.
4. Personalized Care
Advanced imaging and robotic-assisted surgery allow for a more personalized approach to gastric sleeve surgery. Surgeons can tailor the procedure to the specific needs and anatomy of each patient, resulting in better outcomes. Personalized care ensures that patients receive the most appropriate treatment, reducing the likelihood of complications and improving long-term success.
5. Continuous Support
Telemedicine and remote monitoring provide continuous support to patients throughout their weight loss journey. Regular virtual consultations and real-time health monitoring enable early detection of any issues and prompt intervention. This continuous support system ensures that patients stay on track with their weight loss goals and receive the necessary care when needed.
Conclusion
Gastric sleeve surgery in central Delhi has seen remarkable advancements, making it a safer, more effective, and patient-friendly option for weight loss. The integration of enhanced laparoscopic techniques, robotic-assisted surgery, single-incision approaches, ERAS protocols, advanced imaging, bariatric endoscopy, and telemedicine has revolutionized the field. These innovations not only improve surgical outcomes but also enhance the overall patient experience.
If you are considering gastric sleeve surgery in Rajinder nagar,delhi, it is essential to consult with a qualified and experienced bariatric surgeon who is well-versed in these latest advancements. With the right surgeon and the benefits of modern technology, you can embark on a successful weight loss journey and achieve a healthier, happier life.

Physician-Supervised Programs: These programs offer comprehensive support under the guidance of healthcare professionals. They typically begin with a thorough assessment of the individual's medical history, current health status, and weight loss treatment glenview. Based on this information, a personalized weight loss plan is developed, which may include a combination of dietary modifications, exercise routines, behavior modification strategies, and occasionally, prescription medications. Regular follow-up appointments allow for monitoring progress, adjusting the plan as needed, and providing ongoing support and guidance.
Prescription Medications: Certain medications approved by healthcare providers can aid weight loss by various mechanisms. For example, some medications work by suppressing appetite, helping individuals feel full with smaller portions of food. Others may alter the body's absorption of nutrients or increase energy expenditure. These medications are typically prescribed for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) above a certain threshold and who have not been successful with lifestyle interventions alone. They are used as part of a comprehensive weight loss plan and are closely monitored for potential side effects.
Bariatric Surgery: Bariatric surgery is considered for individuals with severe obesity who have not achieved significant weight loss through other means and who may be at risk for serious health complications. These procedures alter the anatomy of the digestive system to restrict the amount of food the stomach can hold and/or reduce the absorption of nutrients. Common types of bariatric surgery include gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and gastric banding. Bariatric surgery typically results in substantial weight loss and can lead to improvements in obesity-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea. However, it is not without risks and requires lifelong

The Latest Advancements in Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery
In recent times, bariatric and metabolic surgery has emerged as a transformative choice for individuals grappling with obesity and related metabolic disorders. As the field of medical science progresses, so do the techniques and technologies employed in these procedures, providing renewed optimism and improved results for patients across the globe. Among the notable advancements in bariatric surgery, the refinement of minimally invasive methods like laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgery stands out. These approaches involve smaller incisions, minimized damage to surrounding tissues, and quicker recovery periods for patients.
Presently, surgeons possess the ability to execute intricate procedures with enhanced precision and accuracy, leading to improved outcomes and reduced risk of complications. As the number of bariatric surgeries performed worldwide continues to increase, the demand for revisional surgery also rises. Revisional procedures are conducted to address complications arising from previous surgeries or to further enhance weight loss outcomes. The progress in surgical techniques and technology has made revisional surgery safer and more effective, instilling hope in patients who may have encountered suboptimal results with their initial procedure. Beyond its impact on weight loss, bariatric surgery has demonstrated profound effects on metabolic health, particularly in the management of type 2 diabetes.
Metabolic surgery, which includes procedures like gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, has shown significant advancements in blood sugar control and even the remission of diabetes in numerous patients. Ongoing research in this field is focused on gaining a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind these metabolic changes and optimizing surgical techniques to maximize their benefits. Alongside traditional surgical methods, endoscopic procedures are gaining popularity for the treatment of obesity and metabolic disorders. For instance, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty involves suturing the stomach from the inside to reduce its capacity, replicating the effects of a surgical sleeve gastrectomy without the need for incisions.
These minimally invasive procedures provide a safer alternative for patients who may not be suitable candidates for traditional surgery. Progress in genetics, biomarkers, and metabolic profiling is paving the way for personalized approaches to bariatric and metabolic surgery. By analyzing a patient's unique genetic composition and metabolic profile, surgeons can customize treatment plans to optimize outcomes and minimize risks. This precision medicine approach holds great promise in improving patient selection, predicting treatment response, and ultimately maximizing long-term success rates. Recognizing that successful weight loss and metabolic health require more than just surgery, many centers now offer multidisciplinary care programs that combine surgical interventions with comprehensive lifestyle management, nutritional counseling, and behavioral therapy.
This comprehensive strategy tackles the intricate elements contributing to obesity and metabolic disorders, resulting in more enduring long-term effects and enhanced quality of life for individuals. The realm of bariatric and metabolic surgery is undergoing swift transformation fueled by technological advancements, research breakthroughs, and advancements in clinical procedures. Ranging from minimally invasive methodologies to personalized medical strategies, these progressions are reshaping the approach to managing obesity and metabolic conditions, providing fresh optimism and enhanced results for patients globally.
