I was very impressed with my care why in my recovery phase. The Gastric Sleeve was a very good tool, however it is a tool. You have to do the work, follow the provider's recommendations before and after care. Reach out for help if you find yourself struggling. Would I have this procedure again, absolutely, I did in the end up having a revision and to the gastric mini bypass in Mexico as the care I had received there was so wonderful I had no reservations going back. I have since lost all the weight I wanted and ended up having a mommy make over.
I highly recommend weight loss agents to assist you in your weight loss journey.
