      She's such a lovely lady, inside and out. When I reached out to her before my surgery with insurmountable fears and panic, she was kind and reassuring to me. I had seen her responses to others' comments and I knew she was special. She's always been there for me and has always been direct and honest, but never scolding, y'know? She's a doll. I'm so sorry about her dad. RIP, sir.

      I will make a point to discuss this with him at my next appointment. Thank you for your explanation. I still don't understand why a body gets only one great metabolic reset, lol. He should have told me!

      Thats what i said above but no, he did not! If I had known, I'd have been prepared. I'd still like to know why medically and physically this is the case.

      I may not have made myself very clear. My surgery was 3 weeks ago, band to sleeve revision and I have only lost 8 lbs. IF you go by what others post on this site, (which of course many of us do and is why we are here), others note their weight loss at 20, 30 and even 40 pounds in their first month! Yes, I know my stomach is healing, but aren't the others with more significant weight losses dealing with the same healing issues? Of course they are. I have heard that revision patients lose much slower than straight sleevesters, but I don't understand why that would be. Also, I have been trying on tight clothes which are still tight. I will keep on keeping on. What else can I do? lol. Thanks for your responses.

  18. Determined to weigh in Monday with a loss on the scale!

    1. SusanB55

      SusanB55

      I'd give anything for a stall. That must come when people have lost significant weight. Or in my case stalled from surgery day. So discouraged.
