RNY 2ND RODEO

Had RNY revision 8/23 and went from 408lbs to 344 in 2 weeks. Problem is, have not lost any since then. Getting discouraged. Tired of people asking how much you lost, and answering "nothin". What am I doing wrong?

I have my revision in the morning. I been drink the treatment and I only have 2/3 down. Havent pooped much or even had urge. The juice is making me gag and fight the urge to vomit. Feels like Constipation. What should I do? Only have about an hour before I stop drinking anything.

Hoping for the best, accepting anything less. Determined for success. Optimistically pessimistic. Anyone else feel trapped from past experience sucess or failure, and find yourself questioning if it is gonna work this time?

Good luck! I know a lot has changed in 17 years...but what specifically has changed about YOU?

It will still only be a tool. And any tool has a work-around. We can and do eat beyond and around our tools everyday and face weight regain.

Have you worked on your head? Do you have a bariatric counselor? Do you work with an RD who will give you extensive follow-ups over the next 5 years? Are you a member of a local weight loss support group?

I'm asking these hoping to hear that you are WAYYYY ahead of me.

Yes. This time I am following up with dieticion and nutritionist plus my physycologist is on call at all times. She wants me to weigh everyday and if I start to backslide, call immediately to discuss where I went wrong. I also have at least 8 freinds who have had weightloss surgeries including my sister. I will be in close contact with them through this process. When I had mine done before I had nobody. Joining this group is also going to be a great source of knowledge.

Rerouting the intestine from the original pouch. Creating a new pouch closer to the valve at the bottom of the stomache and further reducing the enlarged small intestine.

I also had mine around 2002 and am planning on a revision to reduce my pouch and tighten my stoma. I was around 350, lost 140 and have gained it back. My bypass is already distal. What exactly are they going to do duringyour surgery? Thank you

I took very few pictures the first time. I would like to take a picture a day and make a slide show to track the change over the next year. I know I can create a slide show in powerpoint. Any others tried anything like this? Any suggestions?

I had rny gastric bypass in 2001. Went from 516 to 175. Then I started gaining again. Old habits are hard to break. Cokes and pizza. Now Im scheduled for revision on 8/23/19. I feel so ashamed. Back to 400 lbs. This time I need to follow the rules instead of finding ways around them.

All set for 8/23/19. This is my 2nd rny gastric bypass. First one was 17 years ago. Then I was 516 lbs, lost down to 175, bounced back to 400. This is my last rodeo. Gotta make it happen. Got 9 grandkids that love their Papaw.
