  1. Ok hi all I'm wanting to Touch base with the light weights and revision RNY's. I myself am a lightweight and a so to be revision. Sleeve to Rny :) . I had the sleeve 6 months ago and only lost 35lb after 12 weeks if no weight loss and 14 weeks of no inches lost It was suggested to me to get a revision . I'm getting the RNY for its metabolic reset value and to loss the rest of my 60lbs. I was 244 the day I was sleeved and 209 today 5"6. So how was your weight loss? Did you loss slow? How many lbs a week did you loss? Are you a first time lightweight or are you a revision light weight? :)


  2. I have the sleeve have had it for 6 months cost me 25k. I have lost all of 35lbs and now have to get the Rny for its metabolic reset value. The sleeve has a 20% failure rate. The sleeve hurts like a sob mind you I have had 3 9-1/2lb babys all natural childbirth . Gallbladder removed in the 90's lmao. The sleeve hurts more. Just my thoughts lol


  3. I know this is post op I'm in a way post and pre op ;). Let me explain I was sleeved 6 months ago. In that 6 months I only lost 35 lbs that's 5.8 lbs a month. I was told I need the metabolic reset of the RNY. I'm scared that it won't work that I will be the same as the sleeve. Has anyone had a revision at a low BMI and then done okay. I was 244 the day of my sleeve and 208 today. I eat right an workout 5 days a week so I was not slacking or not following my plan. It is 80/128 oz Water, 80/100 Protein, 800/1100 Cals and 50 to 100 carbs I have been and am doing this but my weight stopped coming off well after 3 months. My original doctor started to avoid me and my my questions why wasn't losing I had to find a secondary surgeon. The second surgeon told me that this wasn't normal and that I should think about a revision to RNY. So I'm here looking for anyone that has thoughts and information from people who have had a revision and done alright and people with a low bmi that have done alright. Any info you can give would be helpful.


  4. I have the sleeve Unfortunately for me it does not work properly :( I will be getting a Rny sometime later this year. My sleeve was not done wrong and I had done nothing wrong. My metabolism is so shot that I need the metabolic reset of the RNY. I wish I would have just done Rny to start with would saved me a lot of money time and frustration.


  5. Looks like I get to join you all is this revision forum. I had my sleeve 9/26/12 in the 6 months I only lost 35lb started at 244 and now I'm 209. I'm still not 100% sure I want try this all over again what if it don't work again. The reason for the revision is my doctor believes I have metabolic issues that the Rny could help take care of. I'm worried it won't be any different I was watching what I would eat very well my Protein fluids were good I workout 5 days a week 90/120 mins each time. Even when I was dropped to a 600 calorie diet I lost no weight. So that's were I am now go easy in me I type like crap on this phone :)


  6. I had the sleeve 6 months ago today my Doc said the words sleeve to bypass revision o.0

    Now in my 6 months of the sleeve I have only lost 35lbs. I stick to my plan very well on my Protein and all my calories a gallon of Water a day. Workout 5 days a week 1 or 2 hours a day. Has anyone had this done? I wanted the bypass to start with but The Doc Scared my husband so bad about the bypass that I ended up doing sleeve :P I'm not even sure how this would help I eat so little I workout a lot get all the other stuf in I need and I only at best drop 1 or .5 lbs week. I have had every test that could be done done. Any one with info that would help a lot TY
