  1. My name is Melody and I'm 2 years and 2 months post RNY. My operative weight was 290#, I'm 5'0" tall, and I'm now 107#. That's my problem- I've lost too much weight; I look like a walking skeleton now. I can't seem to gain any weight. The highest I've gotten is 109#, but then I'll drop 2 or 3 pounds the next day- it's really frustrating. I'm taking all my vites, my bloodwork is all normal, but I'm not gaining. I know part of the problem is my stomach capacity. I had forgotten to advance from 1/4 cup portions to 1/2 cup portions like I was supposed to at 6 months post-op so since then I can only eat 1/4 cup portions at meal times; for some reason my stomach won't stretch. Does anyone have any ideas or advice for me? I'm seriously thinking about seeing if my surgeon will do something to stretch my stomach for me or partially reverse the surgery.
