Hi. I am scheduled for surgery May 2nd. My biggest fear is not losing weight. I was wondering if it was possible to not lose if you follow the diet and exercise??

Most people would tell you no. Honestly, I'm still on the fence about this. I am losing... though really, really slowly. So all in all I would have to say that as long as you do what you are supposed to do you will lose weight (even if it's extremely slow... like me :blink: )

I'm 27 weeks post-op and I have never heard of anyone that did not lose weight following RNY. There will be times when the pounds come off pretty fast. And times when they come off pretty slow. And times when they don't come off at all (for a while). Focus your mind and your energy on doing exactly what your team tells you to do and the weight will take care of itself. You and your fiance are going to love the new you!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
