I started at 298 lbs, and lost 158 pounds, so I lost more than 100% of my excess weight! Thanks you Dr. A!!!
Hi how long dod it take you to lose it all?
You did not lose 100% because that would mean you would weigh 0. You lost more than 100 pounds. You lost a little over 53% of your weight which is excellent. Congratulations again. 💪🏽
@drbeautician I lost 100% of mt EXCESS weight.
@@drbeauticianshe clearly stated her excess weight Little Miss Rudeness.
Wow! Great job!

I had my gastric sleeve surgery December 13, 2017 & I loss 150 lbs and I'm so pleased with my results. The key to making this work is dedication and following the process. Nobody loses weight at the same pace

Wow! That’s amazing! Congratulations!
I’ve lost 46kgs. I’m 77kg down from 123.4. I had dangerously high insulin resistance. An enlarged liver. Fatty liver disease. High BP. All have since reversed. Best thing I ever did.
I have everything you had!!! I can’t wait to feel bettwr
All the best. Best thing I’ve ever done. Recommend it v to anyone that needs it. Good luck.
@@GarciaPaulina90 have you had your op yet? Keen to hear how it all went/goes.
How many months did it take to loose the 46 ?
@@MrJaybankingaround 9 months. But I was very strict. I cut sugar out completely. I ate clean.
I'm getting my sleeve on May 30, very excited and determined to make every possible effort to make it work, I'm 124kg and 176cm tall, hoping to go back to 80kg . wish me luck.
Best of luck on your surgery!!!
Getting close to goal already at 6 months. But I was half way down when I had surgery. Without this metabolic surgery would not have succeeded as I have thank you Dr A!!!!!!
A month in and from 208 I’m now 177 pounds.
You lost 30lbs the first month? How ?
@@marthaz1183 I did. I lost 30 pounds my surgeon told me I could start walking and now I’m down to 155
@@marthaz1183 walking and jogging is the key and cutting all carbs! Eat meat vegetables, soup and don’t do any smoothies eat the fruit!
Did you have gastric sleeve or bypass?

My sleeve is next Thursday…getting excited and nervous
HI! How did it go?
Keep us posted! What’s your starting and current weight and where did you go? How did you do with the liquid diet and food noise after? So many questions sorry 😂
How did it go ?
Best Dr. in this field hands down. He is such a class act, incredibly caring and knowledgeable.
I hope you had a blessed birthday Dr.A.
🎉💛
I started at 295 pounds and lost 159 pounds within 11 months. Im 135 pounds right now.
Wow that’s amazing! Congratulations! I’m 300 pounds and can’t wait to have my surgery at the end of the summer!
Awesome!
Starting at 342, I am now down to 210, 10 months out. That is about 77% of my excess. Looking to lose another 40 lbs in the next 12 months.
OMGASH I’m so glad I found your videos !!
I lost more than I weigh currently. Lost 134lbs and currently weigh 110.
I’m so Grateful For You Dr. I am in process of trying to get The Sleeve Your Videos Have really Educated me I know I’m making the Best Decision
Questions for the doctor, can you make a video addressing these questions? if a person's metabolism has slowed drastically which contributed to the excess storage of fat then how is this corrected internally with weight loss surgery? If a person has contended with chronic stress and will continue to encounter chronic stress, how does weight loss surgery correct those internal processes of exaggerated cortisol responses to stress...which contributed to the the excess storage of fat in the first place? Lastly, if a person is severely insulin resistant then how does weight loss surgery correct that internal process of the body requiring more insulin production to cover carb intake?
i Lost a 166 pounds. Over 2 years.. i lost my 100% i wanted to lose.i walk for exercise.I am today age 65.. i am post Ol sleeve 8 years Crafted with 36 French Bougie.North Florida.. Surgery done UF Shands Gainesville Fla.. May 21, 2015.
I am just under 1 year post op with Dr. Alvarez and ive lost over 100% of my excess weight. I am actually under weight at this point, but i am working on building my muscle back. Surgery date my weight was 286lbs and I am currently at 151lbs and im 5'11". Thank you Dr. Alvarez!
Congratulations!!!! How did it take you to loose that much? And when did you first see a difference loosing weight after the surgery? And you drink meal replacement drinks 2-3 weeks before eating back regularly. And Tks
@jacquetyson5621 I honestly just followed through with the diet that Dr. Alvarez put in place. I followed the time-line, with the clear liquids, then full liquids, then soft foods and then all foods. If you follow that diet post surgery, it will all come together. Trust the process. Walking was and still is VERY important. I still walk at least 5 days a week. I had more weight to lose than most, but I honestly probably over obsessed with the scale. DO NOT OVER OBSESS WITH THE SCALE. I still drink protein shakes at least once a day, if possible. I started seeing results that very first month. I lost about 50lbs or so in those first couple months, and the weight loss and slowed down ALOT for me in months 6-12.
@@ryanragan8899 ok great. Omg. You lost a lot . I go in February. I’m just trying to make sure I do what’s right. I appreciate you telling me . Thanks and congratulations again. I can’t wait to start loosing. I’m 42 at 355 3 kids , it’s like my weight is at a standstill still and stubborn. I tried everything. Oh my god. I even starve myself. Nothing. But thank you and you continue to be positive and healthy 💜🙏🏽
@jacquetyson5621 it will get easier trust me. I'm sure in your head your thinking, this is going to be impossible. As long as you stick to your diet you will be OK. It will be next to impossible to over eat after surgery, so the only thing that will make you gain weight, or stay where you are now is if you eat the wrong stuff. Stick with your protein, fruits, and vegetables. It's really not that hard once you get used to it!
@@jacquetyson5621 Good luck!
Whatever you can do now to cut down on carbs/sugar/processed food/caloric drinks in general will help tremendously.
Had my VSG oct 31, 2023.
Lost 35lbs from July to OCT 31st and a lil over 35 lbs up through today.
so 70lbs down since my heaviest at 293lbs.
First few weeks post procedure were kind of trash.
but it gets better.
as already mentioned stick to the diet restriction plan. and trust that the menu will open up sooner than you think.
thanks.
Thanks 🙏
Thank you so much I've been waiting for 2 years to have a gastric sleeve was very nervous at first since I've been watching your videos. Explaining how. And demonstrating the operation . Now I want it. I was worried about before. Thank you so much 🙏👍.😅 Can you please say your name slowly so I can understand your name I have dyslexia in a hard time reading thanks once I look forward to seeing you next video
I hope I’m a success story!!!
I was 182kgs in July 2023 and now weigh 101kgs as of Feb 2024, my next weigh in is in Aug 2024.
Hey, that's an amazing loss
I sure wish I found you before I had my Gastric Sleeve surgery. Extremely disappointed with my results.
Same here
I've had cushings disease thus my weight but I'm treated now and had the sleeve September 26th 2023. I have lost 45kg since August 26th (optifast diet). I'm about 13wks post op. I feel like I'm still in a 3 month stall which is frustrating. I want to lose a total of 110kg to get to MY goal weight. I hope I'm successful.
I had my surgery 10/05/23 and I can’t reach my surgery office, I’m continually sent to voicemail that is never answered and after speaking with multiple people who have had their surgery procedures at the same office this is what has happened to them as well 😢if it wasn’t for your videos and outline I downloaded I honestly would have no guidance. I had to seek medical help from my primary care physician who is now helping me with acid reflux medication. So thank you Dr A.. for all that you do to guide your own patients as well as those left on their own.
Something I’ve noticed with may people who’ve had surgery. They were basically just another number/ dollar sign to their surgeon. Once they get it they become non existent.
Be sure to go online and leave a Google review and/or a review on their website, if possible. It's a struggle for people after surgery (I am 10 days out) and I couldn't imagine being left to my own accord without my doctor's support. Don't let others suffer what you have suffered (if you can help it). I am super stoked that Dr. A has been able to answer your questions with his videos. Best of luck to you.
First, I hope you’re better!! Like the note above, please leave a Google and/or Yelp review describing your experience, and include the physician name in comments. This helps others understand what they’re getting in to! Unfortunately consumers are expected to do the leg work with a lot of physicians/businesses. ❤
Contact your state’s Attorney General about the BUSINESS, not the surgeon individually.
I'm starting at 200
Dr Alvarez, thank you for all of your videos, I am going to be 62 in this January…. I am 100 lbs overweight but I read that someone my age does not lose as well as a younger person having had VSG. Is this true?
I'm not Dr. Alvarez, but I was 61 years old when I had sleeve surgery with Dr. A. I lost 158 lbs, and I was at least 140 lbs overweight
I'm 67 and had my sleeve 10 months ago. I've lost 132 lbs so far.
👍🏼👍🏼
