Heyyyyyy everyone ! I am looking for support! I was just revised from a sleeve to rny on Monday. 7/20/15 . I was sleeved on Feb 17,2014 and lost about 70 pounds. About 6 months in my weight loss basically stopped. After having an upper GI and endoscopy done, I was told that I had a hiatal hernia which caused most of my stomach ( which was sleeved) pushed up in to my chest cavity. The bottom part of my stomach was bloated. The surgeon explained that this was the cause as to why I was not loosing weight as well as having gerd symptoms. So Monday I had my surgery and I am feeling ok definitely in some pain and very tired. But it's nice to be home now to heal. I am looking for anyone who has been revised for support , I feel like our population is not very big
In the wls community , or maybe I just haven't found the right place! I know everyone's situation is different but I am curious to know about weight loss after revisions . Thank you all for reading! I am going to stop now as the pain meds are kicking in

Hey all! I will be revised from my sleeve to gastric bypass on July 20th due to a pretty large hiatal hernia as well as gerd.. I have lost about 70 pounds and I am over a year out from the first surgery. I have heard the weight loss is slower the second time around and I am just curious on what the weight loss has been for others in a revision. Would love any feedback on weight loss!

I too feel like I am a slow loser! I was stalled for a good two and a half weeks! I spoke to my surgeon about it on my month post op appointment and he told me I was not eating enough I was eAting roughly around 400 to 500 calories! He said my body was probably holding on to everything because it thinks it's in starvation mode! He told me to up my calories to about 700 and I should be ok . Which I did and I finally had a 3 pound loss!

So I got on the scale yesterday for my official three weeks post op and it hasn't moved at all! Starting to wonder if my scale isn't accurate or what! Started back to work yesterday which has been great but I get tired so easily!! Got home yesterday and was exhausted!! I hope everyone is doing well! Have an appointment with surgeon on Thursday hopefully the scale moves by then!! I have noticed clothes getting bigger so that's a good sign! I am at 30 pounds since 2 week diet and 16 since surgery

Girls!!! I lost 6.2 lbs since I went to the doc yesterday!! I wonder if going poop helped??

I am on Day 6 post op! Feeling pretty good today.! I am still having a hard time meeting my Protein and Water goal. The water I think I was right at goal for the first time yesterday. As of protein I am supposed to drink two Premier Protein shakes a day and I got 1 and a half in. Hopefully today I can reach that goal. I still feel really full! I Am in very little pain when I move to get up or out of bed, once I am up I am fine! I hope all is healing well!
The first day after surgery u had the what the heck did I do to myself .. But as the days went on I don't regret this for a minute! Family members are already saying they see changes in my face and body which is great! I don't quite see them yet but in time I am sure I will! I chose not to weigh myself until my post op appointment on Wednesday so we shall see!
Has anyone used the PB2? I was wondering if I could use like a scoop in my shake to up my protein. I just don't know if its too soon post op to use!

I am on clear liquids too with the exception of Protein Shakes only got one full shakein today but I was pretty damn proud of myself lol! I was shocked to see some of the post op diets differ! I am on liquids till Monday than I can have the puréed Soups with out any chunks ! I have to say I am looking forward to Tomato Soup for some reason lol! I hope everyone is doing well! I just took my pain meds kinda in la la land right now lol

Hey everyone !! I can not believe I am two weeks out to my Surgery Date! it's almost surreal! So I am on my liquid diet and wow I hope it gets easier!! I have found it to be a little mental for me , would love to be able to actually chew something I do get one small meal which is like 4 0z of chicken or fish and a cup of veggies buts it's just a little tough in the mean time !! Praying it gets easier! The outcome is 100 percent worth it! So I will keep sipping away

I got my date!!!!!!' February 17th so excited!!! I have to say I am a little nervous too!! But the excitement outweighs the nervousness by far!!!
