Vets- how many of you are still 'regulars' here? I still want to chat with people about being in the bariatric community, and really enjoy the support I get from forums, but it seems like there's almost NOBODY here that was here 4 years ago...

Just a few banders post these days. Happy to see them!! Nice positive posts.

Nice to see everyone's response here. It has been 4 years for me, but since I never reached my ultimate goal weight, I continue to fight the good fight. I finally got myself on track where I should have been way back then, and am very close to my goal. Once I'm past that point and have my plastics, I guess I'll feel more like my bariatric journey is complete.

Until then, I'll continue to be a regular here and check in daily!

5 years for me in October I’m not on regularly but try to check in when ever I can

It has been almost 7 years since my sleeve. I was doing really awesome until I allowed myself to start drinking Frappacinos from Starbucks. Now I stopped and am pretty much following the ketogenetic diet. Cut out carbs and have increased good fat intake... I am finally back on track...

Still around, still trying to provide help and support where I can.

I’m 4 years As of September 26. I literally starting feeling so depressed about my weight gain. I’ve gained 36 pounds and never made my goal weight. I’m wondering if I can have a revision

@travelher did you request a revision? How long after your initial procedure?

How much would you have to lose to get to your goal weight (whose goal weight exactly)?

I'm asking because results regarding weight loss seem to be quite mixed when it comes to revisions.

Surely there are many vets out there.
It is nice to chat with anyone who works with wls and the years that follow?
Please post

For those vets have yall been able to keep most of the weight off?

I am almost 6 mos post op and my biggest fear is one day going bk to where I began
