Hi. My name is Stephanie. I'm 28 years old, and I've been post op for 11 years. Ive recently started putting some weight back on, and I'm lost. Is there anyone who has been out for a long time that has had this problem?

Hey Stephanie,

There is a forum for Veterans ....which may help you. I thing it's one of the sub categories under General Weight Loss

Post op 11 years from what surgery? So you had surgery when you were 17 years old? We really need alot more information; activity level, food consumption, medications....................................................

Yes, I was 17 years old. I am now 28. I was 310, got down to 195 and maintained that weight for quite some time. Within the last 2 years I've put on some weight and am at 235. I had the Roux en Y operation. I had a severe iron deficiency and have recently gone through IV iron treatments. I take a double dose of B12, Vitamin C, Fiber, and Multivitamin every single day.
