Thinking of getting a revision. HELP!!

[skinnybitchgoals 49]

So I had my sleeve done in 2014. Day of surgery I was 210 pounds. Lowest I dropped to was 174. I maintained my weight between 180-190 for a couple of years. With in the past year gained back all the weight I lost and then some. I’m currently at 212 pounds. I think I have some sort of hernia, and HELLA MEGA BAD reflux. I take Zantac everyday, like even Cereal with milk gives me bad heartburn.

So now here I am, thinking I should get some revision surgery. I already made an appt for a consult. But I’d also like y’alls opinions or suggestions.

-What’s better post sleeve, Roux en Y or bypass?

Also, what are some things y’all wish you would have known with revision???

How tall are you. More info please about the first surgery.

Why do you think that eating Cereal and milk is a recipe for anything other than regain (and then some) and hellah GERD? I had RNY and before and after surgery, if I ate a meal like that I have hellah GERD.

Just asking cuz there are no magic surgeries. And typically revision surgery doesn't imbue the type of weight loss you see in virgin surgeries--especially if there are emotional food eating behaviors that have contributed to the regain.

Regardless of which surgery you choose, the main question should really be--where can I find the best RD and best bariatric counselor to work with on my eating program?

Welcome! And I wish you all the best.
