Very good information

I'm thinking about having the surgery but not really sure yet

Absolutely relevant video for everyone who is researching about the bariatric surgery. I would love to hear from you Dr.Pilcher: Any updates regarding the effectiveness of the both options Sleeve and ByPass in the long term? Any new research updates which could help us to choose one of them more effectively? I would love to know where to find these date as well, if it’s possible for you to share. I cannot thank you enough in advance for this and for all your contributions for the understanding of this matter. ❤️

Can u get pregnant after a gastric sleeve or bypass?

Can I have bypass surgery while taking Anastrozole?

Hey sir my mother get before 2 years ago type 2 diabetes now type one happens 6.8hba1c is there so it has good for bariatric surgery help fatty liver and diabetes type one and she has anxiety panic attacks sleepless so and her weight is 8.9 kg so ? What type of surgery help for lifetime and good health please tell us

Dr Pilcher is the best physician I have ever seen. Takes time and listens. Professional and patient and also trust on patients. Thank you so much for making the video.

I am considered a tofi <thin on outside fat on inside> I heard lap band does also help people with low body mass and still reverses type 2 diabetes due to the lowering of ectopic fat, this is true?

This is my stage but I am happy to see my hair loss because my mind said to me your surgery is working for weight loss so that’s why you have hair loss.

I am the best example of what the Doctor explained about insulin resistance type two diabetes. I am taking mounjaro with metformin my weight loss is very slow. I am looking forward for my bariatric surgery. My Dr is suggesting months ago to do a bariatric surgery but i am very hesitant. Not anymore i want to be healthy.

I am so blessed to have him as my surgeon. I lost so many inches and went from a large to a small size in 7 weeks after my gastric sleeve surgery. I highly recommend Sage Bariatric Institute in Texas for weight loss surgery. Everything is going so well for me. My only issue is that I still feel very hungry 😢 but I can’t eat much, and I’m able to make healthy choices, which is the best part of weight loss surgery. My sugar cravings are completely gone now. I used to eat sugary foods all the time, but not anymore. I’ve lost 23 lbs in 7 weeks and want to lose 30 lbs more, then I will work to maintain it. I hope the hunger issue can be solved with the help of my family doctor and my surgeon over the long term. I feel so healthy, active, and I’m now able to sleep on my own without needing prescription sleeping pills, which I used when I was overweight. I haven’t had any issues at all. Some people experience pain after surgery, but my surgery was pain-free. I didn’t feel any pain right after surgery and was able to go home 5 to 6 hours later. My only regret is that I didn’t find this surgeon sooner and have the surgery earlier. I had been trying to lose weight for the last 13 years under the weight loss dietitian and doctors without any success. I was scared that this procedure wouldn’t help me lose weight, but I was wrong. Let’s see if I can lose the additional 30 lbs. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. This surgery is also affordable if you want to pay out of pocket like I did because I didn’t want to waste many months dealing with insurance and waiting for approval.

Its not a joke Surgeon are try the best to safe lives through gastric bypass 😢ihave gone through that procuder👆🏼 several times major stomach surgeries 😢its not a jokes ithank God and all Surgions 🇰🇪🙋🏽‍♀️

I'm from Romania so sorry for my English 😁 I came to this video because I couldn't decide which one to choose. finally, complete explanations that everyone can understand. many thanks!

Ive never had bypass surgery and still deal with this. I noticed after dealing with anxiety disorder and agoraphobia. My sugar drops after a meal on average once a week. I eat constantly snack on peanuts and sugar protein bars all day long amd this seems to help. DR Pilcher, what would you suggest? Ive tried a dietician, ive tried doctors and nobody knows anything.

Amazing communicator ! So interesting, as usual...

I get instant reactions (in about a minutes or even seconds) such as pain in my muscles and joints, twitching in my muscles, tingling under my feet and some kind of fuzziness whenever I eat anything carbohydrates or sweet or sugary, including banana and bread, which are the worse. I also get very weak and drowisy that sometimes knocks me off for about an hour. Recently, salt gives me same reactions as well. No Dr has been able to diagnose the problem yet. My blood sugars are high, although I am not diabetic but my sugar levels are almost prediabetic. These symptoms started at a time I was diagnosed as prediatic but my sugar have reduced now, although the symptoms worsen. I am desperately looking for help and warmly welcome any information in this regard.

I've always wondered why the stomach comes out for one and not for the other surgery. Very clear and understandable explanation. Thanks

❤❤❤❤

Really good info! RNY in 2002. Sliced open! Twice because I had a hernia. But I’d do it all again. After 22 years, I’ve kept off 100lbs. I’m still 180 lbs at 5’2” but without the surgery I would be dead. It put my diabetes in remission until 2 years ago. I now take Synjardy.

Very educational thanks Doc .!

I'm now 18 months post surgery. Out of all the information available on the internet (Google, youtube, Facebook) I found your videos the most valuable for practical, sensible and reassuring explanations and information. I had the surgery done in another country ( where I currently live), and English is not spoken by medical teams generally. So pre and post surgery support was difficult/barely available, and I needed to self educate. Thank you for the time and energy you have put into producing these highly informative videos.i found them educational pre surgery, and reassuring as I went through different stages of recovery post surgery. I regularly share them with others as appropriate. Please know how appreciated your efforts are!

I'm on day 4 post operation of a gastric bypass (one anastomosis) - your video catalogue has been invaluable for dealing with pre-op and now post-op. Thank you so much for taking time out of your life to make and share these videos.

What’s better sleeve or bypass

Hey dr 😊 I appreciate your videos for teaching us about bariatric surgery ‘ I been doing my research about bariatric surgery, gastric sleeve and gastric bypass for many years now .

Thank for reloading the video with sound 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😊😊😊

Dr. Pincher thanks for easing my mind for my upcoming surgery

Dr Pilcher, I really appreciate your videos. I’d love for you to be my doctor.

Thank you. We really appreciate your videos to educate us.

Thanks ❤️ 😊

Thank you sooo much Dr. I was fascinated to see how this works. I am having a procedure done in a few weeks. This helps calm some fears and give me some points for discussion with my team. Thanks again.❤

I love doctors like this. He actually observes and tracks his patients' progession and understands what works for them.

This presentation was incredibly thorough and clear. Koodos to you Dr. Pilcher. You're a top-notch communicator!

I cheated on my two week liquid diet. Currently fasting , at 30 hours, going to go to 48 then resume. Surgery very soon

Wow another great and informative video. Thank you Sir

I wish I can able to see my surgery video like this 😊

I agree with you Lisa, He is very good doctor. And always respectful to his patients and a good listener.

👍

I hope this can help someone watching had the gastric sleeve in 2018 by the summer of 2019 I was down to 130 pounds. It was amazing. I was doing great. When Covid hit I started day drinking and I gained back all of the weight in a matter of a year and a half. Please please please do not drink alcohol. I did not eat my way back to gaining weight. I drank my way.

Since it’s become quite common now for a conversion surgery from a sleeve to a gastric bypass, could you please speak more on that subject and the risk of that type of surgery. Also, could you please speak about the robotic assisted surgery? thank you.

OMG what a clarity! Much appreciated doc to help me understand the 3 weeks stall which I was worried about.

1:40 It is get better

Wow!

I did the sleeve in January 2019, went from to 270 to 210 I was happy, I stated developing a hernia in the incision site, 5 years later. Got an endoscopy done with same surgeon, he said he can remove the hernia, and re sleeve. He just called today and said your blue shield will not cover the re sleeve, but it will cover the hernia removal. The gastric bypass will be covered but the sleeve is no I don’t know what to do He recommended going from a sleeve to gastric bypass. Since the weight loss, and the weight gain I have developed sleep apnea and a I am back at 279 lbs with a stretched stomach. I don’t know what to do. I always thought bypass has a high risk of complications.

Good video. It’s been 2 weeks and my goal has been walking 10,000 steps. Came into my endoscopic gastroplasty with fundus ablation (new add on option for gherelin) with a good amount of muscle under the fat from resistance training and as my energy has returned want to do that as well. If not to build muscle, then at least to preserve for now.

what happens to the gut biome?

Excellent video that is FULL of good information for PRE-op patients. I am meeting with my FL surgeon in 3 days and have, thanks to Dr Pilcher's video, decided I want the Gastric Bypass. It will definitely be better for me. Thank you, Sir, for the great explanations! I feel greatly relieved and optimistic.

Thank you for this awesome video doctor. I had Acanthosis all around my neck since I was 9 years old (I am now 50. I was diagnosed with diabetes at 28 years old). The amount of teasing and hurtful looks and things ppl said to me for my whole life hurt my self confidence tremendously. I got SVG Bariatric Surgery 18 months ago and as soon as the 3rd month Post Op, I saw the beginning of the darkness start to go away. Now, IT IS ALL GONE. It’s so crazy! The amount of Products that not only my mother but also that I Used, Never Helped. Not even a lil bit. So seeing This Video has helped me to understand so much. Again, Thank you.

I wish I had found this video before going with the sleeve, because of the acid reflux. I don't regret the decision to have surgery, just wish I had gone with the bypass instead. I'm losing a lot of weight but probably because I'm rarely hungry anymore and sometimes I'm just so afraid of the horrible chest pains that I avoid eating most of the day.

I have diabetes, sleep apnea, fatty liver, hormonal I balance, and now I have started with high BP! But I also have a hiatus hernia and I hear a lot of people have ir worse after surgery! Even if the get hernia repaired! I already have a lot of issues because of it so that is what's stopping from getting surgery!

On my list of food they have sugar free jello as a liquid,is it ok?
