Was looking to see if their is a list anywhere of who is band to bypass and how long its been since they had the revision

Bypass 2010 4 years out had all kinds of problems alot removed in my body I was 330lbs . STOPED at 140 FINALY !! Then this last year horrible I'm down 119 n in so much pain n sick!! Surgeon can't find a reason that it hurts to eat anything other than soft food only!! Having feeding tube by stomach Friday the 23ed on my birthday . 4 weeks ago we tried tube in my nose but kept blocking w removal. I'm so sick of it I had 2 options, stomach feed to gain weight or starve to death.

I was banded in January of 2009. I choose band over bypass then because I wanted something reversible and adjustable since I was planning on having another baby. I lost 40 pounds in the first year. Not stellar but good. Then I started having reflux. I got stuck on every food. I threw up or slimed every time I ate.

I turned to slider foods and gained it all back. Every last pound and a few extra now reside with me

I started to look into revision last year. I met with a new surgeon who took all the Fluid out of my band so the reflux would subside a little and so I could eat. I love the new surgeon! He told me he sees a lot of people like me.

So I have my insurance approval but I had to schedule my surgery out in December so I cam finish school. I'm excited and scared. I know the recovery is worse with bypass but I'll be so happy to have this band out. I am excited to not feel like there's a ball constantly jabbed under my ribs. I'll be happy to eat with out being asked if I'm stuck again.

Lots of luck to us all on the journey!

I hear that. My story is almost the same im waiting to get my approval. Seems like forever

Same here

I'm on my 4th month after revision and down 71lbs and worried about the weight loss slowing down and had heard revisions lose slower I'm curious why? I asked my dr and he said because most revsions have lost their initial weight with their first surgery and then a large amount after revision because of the liquid diet after ....but I weighed more when I had my rny then I did when I had my band so I'm hoping I don't slow down too much or else I feel like I'll never get to my goal weight

I know the feeling! I hope and pray this works better for me than the band. I too weigh more than when I got the band. I cant wait for them to take it out. My nutri omits told me the other day that most bypass patients stall from 6-9 month but to continue with my protein and excercise because the weightloss will resume again and the scale will move in the right direction once again. She said not to be discouraged, so I'm trying to keep that in my memory bank for when the time comes. Good luck!

I was told by my surgeon that because I had the band twice and and so much scar tissue and adhesions will make my weight loss a little more challenging. If you don't have a lot to lose then gets harder. I was 232 when I had my surgery and I weight 185 ' date=' I was a size 20 now I am a 12 but have been at a stall for almost a month (in month 6) I'm not a petite person I am 5'5" tall and had carried my weight all over not just in one spot. The reason my surgeon wanted his patients to eat only protein until 75% of the weight loss was met before starting fruits and veggies.

Still struggling gaining not losing one year after revisions surgery..... ! So disappointed and frustrated!
