Hi I Am A Newbe Here. I Need Some Friends



Recommended Posts

I had my RNY way back on Feb 14,2000 and I have gained most of the weight back! I am now seeing a Dr. Who just ran some test to see why I gained so much weight back. They found out that my stomach in now a 7 which means that it isa medium size. He said that they can do a rev. But it will be harder to loose weight then the first time I had my RNY. I told him that is ok, anything will help I hope! Has anyone started gaining? Or has anyone gained and then did a rev to loose what they gained? If not good, but I still need someone to chat with :) so plz let's help each other :).

@becjyjorm i had mine in 2004, I initially lost 170lbs and have gained back 53 in the last two yrs. I am scheduled for a revision on 8/20, my pouch was not stretched but I do have a dialated anastomosis which is the conection from the stoma to the intestine. What I have read is that it is a technical error that can occur. However I know that half of my gain has been to lack of discipline and bad habits creeping up. I also have tried finding people/information on rny to rny revision but the information out there ia very limited. By the way i love dachsunds, I have one too! I can definetly let u know how it goes and working4shoes just went threw it so now it is 3 of us in the same boat!

Hi, I'm Laura and I had my RnY revision surgery August 6, 2010. From that date until last year when I left my husband, I had lost a total of 140lbs. BUT, I. The last year I have gained 31 lbs, have totally disregarded my post op diet and am totally disgusted with myself. I want to get back on track, but I am lacking the proverbial "kick in the ass"!! Lol. I live near Cornwall ON Canada. Maybe we could be support for each other?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
