Weight loss at first postoperative visit predicts long-term outcome of RNY



Recommended Posts

Fascinating study, the results of which should answer lots of "what did you lose at x months" questions. For me, this also provides some large-sample data for which I can set some achievable and realistic goals and expectations for my own progress. Comparison is the thief of joy, but I love looking at peer-reviewed studies.

I’m trying to read this... does it really say that even the 95th %ile doesn’t lose 100% of excess weight?

I just checked my stats and I was pretty consistently at the 90th %ile but I lost greater than 100% if 100% puts you at a BMI of 25.

No, I don't think so. I see a slight upward slope for those in the 90th and 95th percentiles, meaning that the weight loss continues for these high achievers, albeit at a slower rate. You beat the odds. You're doing great! Now please share your success factors. :D

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
