Epi 347

Gastric sleeve surgery can change your life — but no one talks about the dark side.

In this raw and powerful episode of Our Sleeved Life Podcast, we uncover the truth about gastric sleeve surgery (VSG / vertical sleeve gastrectomy) that many bariatric patients experience but rarely discuss.

From extreme weight loss to emotional eating, trauma stored in the body, eating disorder risks, loose skin, body dysmorphia, mental health struggles, and rebuilding strength after surgery — this is the side of bariatric surgery that deserves attention

If you’re considering bariatric surgery, preparing for VSG surgery, or navigating life after gastric sleeve, this episode will give you the real, unfiltered truth.

🎙 In This Episode We Discuss:

What doctors don’t always explain about gastric sleeve surgery

The mental health impact after bariatric surgery

Eating disorder behaviors after rapid weight loss

Emotional eating and food funerals

Loose skin after massive weight loss

Skin removal surgery after bariatric surgery

InBody scans vs DEXA scans

Strength training and muscle building after gastric sleeve

Rebuilding confidence after extreme transformation

This is not just a “before and after” story.

It’s a conversation about what happens after the scale moves.
