Hi Froufrou, I'm getting the gastric sleeve revision to gastric bypass, i'm a bit nervous, i gain most of the weight back and have had other health issues like, PCOS, arthritis in knee and diabetic along with acid re-flux. how much have you lost since the revision? was it worth it? i'm just a bit nervous.

Hello Epiphany, im so glad to hear everything went well for you, and it'll only get better!

Thanks To be Thin 2011, you are so right , i need to start with the exercise, i just dont make the time or just plain make excuses for:) again thank you, for your encouraging words and making feel more at ease. I have racking my brain thinking maybe im eating too many calories ( 600-700) or maybe i should be doing something different, but now i see i have to actually get out there and start with the exercise.

Hello everyone, i need some advise on what in doing wrong, i am 5 1/2 months out i haven't really exercised and i know that has been part of it but i still try and stay active and walk around the office. i have been able to lose 61 lbs since the surgery but i have been losing inches, in June i weighed 281 and in September i weighed in at 271, i dont understand it.
