My daughter had RNY 14 months ago she lost 130 pounds so far and she is still loosing ! I think slower might be better cause this is something you want to do forever ! My brother in law lost weight super fast when he had RNY and as soon as he got to goal weight he stopped extersising and went back to old ways and gained his weight back . My goal is to live till I'm 85 so I don't care how fast I loose just as long as I can maintain a healthy weight the rest of my life.Yeah, I mean I dont care if I doesnt fall off, just thought it would be a little more consistent....I dont understand if it calories in calories out then no calories in should be weightloss....but i will tell ya, if I ate 1 too many calories i would gain!!!

I heard that too' date=' I dont understand why revisions would be slower? does anyone have an answer?...I weigh exactly the same as you LOL....[/quote']

Nothing scientific but I really think with all the ups and downs and starvation mode etc my body had become extremely resourceful and knows how to suck ever last drop out of every calorie I eat :/
