Sleeve to bypass revision success stories



Recommended Posts

I’m nearly a month out from my revision surgery, and I don’t think I am doing well. I feel restriction somewhat, but it’s strange because I rarely feel hungry and/or full. Is this normal? I get so confused because I know I need to eat, but I don’t get hungry. I’m getting in my Protein (60g) but not my Water (about 32oz vs 64oz), and I started surgery at 240 on May 30th, and I only lost 10 pounds since then. I am finishing up purred stage, and start soft food next week.

Is weight loss slower after a revision, am I driving myself mad? I already had a failed sleeve, maybe it’s just my anxiety that the bypass will fail to. I have a month check up this week so hopefully he can fill me in. But, do you guys have any input?

I’m 6 weeks out from my RNY & just now starting to have hunger/fullness feelings.

I think our bodies are just in shock from what we just put them through & they don’t know how to feel yet!

I am almost 7 weeks out sleeve to bypass and I too feel no hunger/no restriction. But I eat VERY little. Less than 2 ounces a day. I just can’t get use to food yet. We are still healing.

i have read that weight loss may be slower for these types of revisions. My surgery was May 10th & I have lost 29lbs. 50 lbs from my highest. I believe what you are feeling is normal.

try and get all your Water in an way possible. You’re body won’t let go of anything if you aren’t drinking your fluids. Have sugar free popsicles as liquid (my nutritionist said it counts as 2 ounces). And try sugar free jello; those are liquids.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
