Good morning all.....I was just wondering if there are others on here who have had revision surgery due to a past WLS.....And after you had a revision, how much weight loss were you losing per week. I am 8 weeks post op and so far I have loss 35 since surgery(2/16/15) And 44lbs in total from my starting weight (2/3/15).

Good morning, thanks for your feedback....I am starting to see that....There are times when I feel like I am doing something wrong when I don't see the numbers going down....But I am going to keep doing what I am doing with my exercise and eating ....I am going to talk with my doctor at my upcoming apt about my concerns.

Good morning....Okay is it just me or am I doing something wrong here....Here it is, I am 4 weeks post op and so far I have only lost 25lbs since my surgery...I know that if you don't get in your Proteins and all it can slow down your weight lost (understand that). I have been able to up my Protein intake now that I am on soft foods and all and now I can get protein in by other ways besides my Protein drinks and shakes....I am doing my exercise and all...so what gives...I am lost, seems like nothing that I am doing is working to jump start my weight lost again...If any one have any input...please help!!!

Good morning everyone...I hope that everyone is having a blessed and wonderful day....I have some wonderful news....Some of you know that was talking bout the stall that I was dealing with and it went on for 2 weeks. Last Wednesday I decided to weigh myself and notice that I have loss a few pounds and I was like...Yes...So from last Wednesday to today, I have loss a total of 7lbs...Okay here is the news....I am now under the big 300....Yes I am so proud of myself and knowing that I am doing what it needed to get who I was back...I am loving this new journey that I am on....

Thank you....Now that I am 6 weeks post op as of today....I am very please with all the weight that I have loss so far. I know that the reward at the end is having a healthy me and lifestyle. I am enjoying the new journey that I am on when it comes to my weight loss. My husband has been great when it comes to supporting me and has also been my strength trainer since he lift weights. Thanks for all of your advise and support on here. I have found this site a great help when I don't understand something, wondering about something or just need to talk to someone who are dealing with the same issues that I am....

Good morning everyone....I planned on posted this on Wednesday but I was dealing with death in my family. Okay, here is an update...After dealing with the stall that I was having, I took a lot of the advise that was giving by increasing my calories, looking at my exercise workout and everything in between. So I decided to weigh myself on Wednesday and I was down another 4.5lbs. It may not seem like a lot...but it is to me....Thanks for all of the support that you all have not only given to me but to others who are dealing with the same thing...

@@jrp12365, we all had to deal with that after having surgery. And like Luna222 stated it's due to the gas and all the Fluid that is giving to you when and after you had your surgery....And you will loss all of that after a few days..

I am sorry that you are having a hard time when it comes to your weight loss. I am also a revision patient as well. I will keep you in my prayers and I wish you all the best.

Way to go on your weight loss...

Thank you all for your support... @@Daisee68, yes I know how much 25lbs is....and picking up a bag you dog food, I wont do...lol. I picked up my husband 25lb weights and that is heavy as crap..lol. But I have come to realize that I am not alone when it comes to this, many gets to this point when they stall when it comes to losing weight....But it is okay....I will get thru this....

Good morning everyone, My name is Candice, I am 38 married to a wonderful man of 18 years and mother of 4 wonderful daughters. Okay, here is my weight loss story. I had a gastric bypass back in Sept 2003 and lost a total of 150lbs..But started having a lot of heath issues that weren't related to my surgery and was placed on 15 different medicines and 11 were steroids. So after dealing with my weight and trying to loss the weight without much success, I decided to find a doctor to help me out. After many test and all, my doctor found out that my stomach had went from a size of a pecan to the size of a lemon....So we decided that a revision of my first gastric bypass would be the best. I starting weight was my most high of 340( my weight went up and down over the past year), on surgery date I was sitting at 331. Now I am 3 weeks post op I am weighting in at 306...I am so proud of myself and know that this is my second chance and having a healthy life. I am truly bless to be at this point in my life and knowing that I have a wonderful support group at home makes it worthwhile.

Good morning....what area are you in.....and like someone else stated..is there any bariatric surgery support meetings in your area. There are a big help when it comes to support. Even when I have family support, there is nothing like being around others who are dealing with the same thing as you....I wish you all the best...and you are always come on here...Great support!!!

I guess we are all in the same boat...I am also 4 weeks post op and dealing with a stall as well...I was also thinking the same thing, that this was to early to be dealing with a stall...but now I see it fooled me....But I am reading and listening to others about getting my proteins in, my water and upping my exercise...Hopefully we all will be out of this stall very soon.. I wish everyone the best...

@@amanda1025, yes it an be disheartening at times...But I am learning to not get on the scale and see if anything is happening...And I will be at my 5weeks post op on Monday....But being on here has help me so much cause I am realizing that I am not the only one who is dealing with this...And being able to talk to you all is a big help....

@Djmohr thanks a lot.....Me and my husband was talking last night and I realize that I am being to hard on myself....I know the only thing that I can do is continue with my weight loss plan and like you said enjoy my new healthy lifestyle.

Annelisem, I feel where you are coming from....I am 4 weeks post op and I have stall as well when it comes to my weight loss and I hope that it will pick up soon....And I am with you when it comes to getting in the food....I know I can get it between 600-800 a day and exercise all so....

Hi, hope all goes well when it comes to your surgery...I know that when it came to my pre-opt diet...I started early as well and I only did my Protein shakes, low cal drinks, broth, sugar free Jello and sugar free popsicles. Hope this helps some...and I am sure that you will loss those 8lbs.

I understand where you are coming from...On Feb 16th I had a revision as well for a gastric bypass that I had done back in 2003. It the same thing goes thru my mind as well at times...But I cant eat everything...cause I can feel it....Hope this helps you out some cause I am sure you are not alone when it comes to this...

Hi, when it comes to getting my Protein in I used Syntrax nectar Protein and you can get it in different flavors....

Congratulations on your well loss as well.....and keep us update on your apt on tomorrow

Trust me I am....glad to be down the 25lbs that I lost when I went to my 3 week post op appt....But I'm going to continue with my weight lost journey and allow myself time and my body to adjust to everything.

I remember doing the same thing when I came home from the hospital too....I wonder the same thing at first. But like someone else stated, it was everything that they put in you while you were in there from the gas from your surgery to all the IV...

I had a revision of the gastric bypass
