Successful Weight Loss with the Gastric Sleeve is now available on the iPad, Kindle and Nook. This book is one of the first of its kind to appear in digital format, according to the book’s author, Mexico bariatric surgeon Guillermo Alvarez, who hopes it reaches a wide population of people interested in bariatric surgery, specifically the gastric sleeve procedure.
“Successful Weight Loss with the Gastric Sleeve” is a comprehensive resource for potential bariatric surgery candidates. After exploring the general topics of obesity and weight loss treatments, the book goes into greater detail about gastric sleeve surgery. It includes an explanation of the surgery itself, guidelines for post-operative diet and exercise and a list of potential complications. “Successful Weight Loss with the Gastric Sleeve” concludes with powerful patient testimonials.
Gastric sleeve, otherwise known as a vertical sleeve gastrectomy, is an operation to reduce the size of the stomach so it can hold less food, thereby restricting the patient’s caloric intake. Some bariatric surgeons consider it advantageous over gastric bypass because it does not require rerouting the intestinal tract, and produces steady, rapid weight loss.
