    GotItDoneInHarlem got a reaction from GreenTealael in No restriction   
    I'll be at two weeks on Tuesday. I have no problem drinking anything, I can drink A LOT. I can also eat a lot more than I expected, but I'm being careful not eating until I'm full. I have just yet to feel a restriction.
    Normal?

    I was revised from sleeve to RNY yesterday. Today I can do way more than sip Water, Propel, and crystal light. Am I correct in assuming that liquids are going straight through like a slider and that I have nothing to worry about other than liquid, Protein, and Vitamins?

    I feel like a million bucks. When I had my sleeve done 6 years ago I was in terrible ain, was very nauseous, and vomiting. Not this time! The changed the medications they used and thin time was great. I was admitted at 10:45 in the OP by 1pm. I was discharged less than 24 hours later.

    GotItDoneInHarlem got a reaction from GreenTealael in Revision weight loss   
    I am at my goal weight of 175~180. I have to revise to RNY due to intractable GERD.
    Has anyone else reviewed at their goal weight? What I really want to know is how much weight loss should I expect. If you have revised, how many pounds did you lose.
    Thanks in advance for your answers!

    I see that Lynda486 had a bad experience with Chantix but it was great for me. No cravings at all! Very vivid dreams are a side effect but they're not always nightmares.

    GotItDoneInHarlem got a reaction from GreenTealael in Bypass revision for GERD after sleeve   
    I had a sleeve done in 2013. I lost a ton of weight and am very happy with the resuIts. I lost 120 pounds and have kept it off. The problem is that it gave me terrible GERD to the point where medication no longer helps. I've seen multiple doctors and they all say I need surgery to correct the GERD before it becomes pre-cancerous. The surgery to correct the GERD is a gastric bypass. I'm already at my goal weight of 175 and I'm scared that I'll loose too much weight. Has anyone experienced this too? I'm looking for feedback.

    Why on earth would you start back up?
    Many surgeons will not do surgery if you smoke or plan to start again. Smoking and the carbon monoxide and other chemicals in your blood stream hampers healing and you're more likely to get a staple line leak.
    I quit before surgery and have no plans on starting back up. I feel so much better.
    I hope that you'll reconsider quitting with the intention of starting again.
