Those who have had stomach reduction surgery, now how to eat

  The stomach is an important part of our digestive system, in addition to initial digestion, it is more like a storage room, all the food we eat will be stored in the stomach and then slowly digested, to provide us with continuous energy. In other words, without the stomach, we can only replenish energy to the body by constantly eating.  In recent years, many people have opted for gastric reduction surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) to lose weight. This surgery is a surgical weight loss method that involves removing a large portion of the stomach to limit its capacity, while using the recovery period to quickly lose a large amount of excess weight and maintain it over time.  According to some domestic hospitals that do this surgery, generally after this surgery, the volume of the stomach is only about 60-80ml, and because it is removed along the direction of the greater curvature of the stomach, the residual stomach basically loses the ability to stretch, and its capacity is basically fixed. For example, the mineral water that we usually buy for two dollars is 550ml, that is, 60~80ml is less than one fifth of it, that is, after the gastric reduction surgery, the food that we eat each time is not as much as one fifth of the bottle of water.  550ml of mineral water indeed, each time can only eat so little food, weight loss is naturally not a difficult task, because it is difficult to become fat, but eat so little, really will not be hungry?  In fact, this is one of the advantages of gastric reduction surgery, because the surgery makes the stomach become very small, so it is also easier to eat full, hunger will also become lower, there will be no active dieting at all like there is to endure physical torture. And in order to let themselves eat more, the hospital will generally let patients eat slowly, fully chew food, while taking less and more meals, those hospitals with a better system will also have a special health manager to guide patients how to eat, how to match food, do not have to worry about the patient’s diet problems!
