I had this issue when I'deat things I wasn't supposed to eat and with a 40 pound weight gain that's probably your issue as well. The best solution is to change your eating habits back to day 1 if you can and go from there. If you never got in to exercise or physically unable tt hat would also help. Good luck.

@thiklips assuming much? The OP has had considerable complications and didn't post a typical day of eating. Plus we don't know of any other conditions involved.

Perhaps it's true and perhaps not, but you were not any help at all.

OP - post an average day of eating and Fluid intake please. Do you have a support team you can contact - nutritionist, etc?

Hi, I too had my surgery on July 20/2017. I only have a little problem with Acid Reflux once in a while and I realized that it only happens when I eat too fast. As far as the dumping goes, I read in the post op booklet I was given by my surgeon, that happens when we eat too much and unhealthy foods such as high in fat and sugars. I suggest you to have your doctor give you as much information as possible on healthy eating etc but you must stick to the plan or else you'll be very uncomfortable and regain weight. You went through a very drastic surgery to undo it now. I'll be praying for you. Have a great day [emoji120]

@Sosewsue61 Firstly, this person seemed to need a response and I felt pretty bad that no one cared enough to even respond to his post, so I did. Now it's not your place to say whether what I said helped or hurt this person, who died and made you forum boss! I speak the truth from the info. given. People aren't here because people have always been kind to them but I'm a kind person and I'm an honest person and if I can't speak the truth or at least my truth, I say nothing at all. Instead of you criticing my post, Focus your energy on the person in need of a response and deliver some helpful information!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
