I still am waiting for my surgery, but the pros and cons as I understand them is the following: pros: the weight you will lose if doctor orders are followed. Cons: the limitation on foods yo can eat.what are the pro & cons of this surgery?
I can't really think of any cons of having gastric sleeve surgery. My experience has been awesome. There wasn't much pain after the surgery and the nursing staff were friendly and caring. They had me up and walking that same day. I lost over 60 really fast. I can't say that I did much as far as exercise was concerned. The weight just seemed to fall off. It actually scared me and I started eating things I shouldn't have which caused me to be at the plateau that I'm at right now. I'm grateful that I haven't gain a lot of weight back but I'm determined to get back on track and loose an extra 45 pounds. As far as limitations of foods I can eat, I find that I can eat what ever I like which in itself is more reason to be cautious about what I eat. The most important thing is to make protein a main staple in your daily diet. Protein first, vegetables next, then fruit and the rest of the stuff comes last. Usually by the time I finish eating my protein, veggies and fruit I find I don't have room for other things like carbs etc. Also, they say make sure to thoroughly eat your food and it should take 45 minutes to finish your meal. That is something I am still working on because I do not like cold food.what are the pro & cons of this surgery?
