Hi all! Is there anyone here who got a revision from sleeve to bypass and lost more weight? If you did, did you gain wait after sleeve? My HW 280, Lowest sleeve weight was (2013)171, (2017)180 after 5 years, (2019) 190 on my wedding day and now w GERD and quarantine I’m 230 :(

I get my surgery date this week for bypass. Are there any success stories of going back down to your lowest sleeve weight? I’m excited to no longer have to take omperozole but do want to lose and get back down to 170. Please let me know, looking for someone who achieved that lol

I would really love some success stories as well. Had sleeve 8 years ago. Went from 260 down to 166. After about a year started gaining it right back and with this crazy year I'm back to 250. I'm going for a sleeve to bypass revision but the doctor said the results typically aren't as good. I'm having trouble finding much on the internet specific to that.

Thanks

Jean

Jean! I have my surgery scheduled 11/2. I met with my surgeon last week and he said as long as I stick to my no carb, Protein and physical activity I will lose the weight and go back down to my lowest. Today is my first day no coffee and I’m dying but ready to get back into track. I also follow some on IG that has revision for weight loss and she said it takes longer but possible if we follow the diet and don’t go back to our old habits. I totally know how much this sucks to have come so far only to gain lol but we got this!!!

I had my surgery on 10/14. Pre-op weight was 239. The pumped me full of fluids and on 10/15, I weighed 249.

Went for post op and weighed in at 228. They just put me on purées. I was struggling with having BM and I was in excruciating pain. I was finally Abe to resolve issue and my recovery is so much better. I weighed in today @226. So... I’d say that I am losing thus far. I want to get back to my lowest weight of 165. I’m sure this loss will slow down soon, but I am currently pleased with the steady loss right now!

My understanding from the doc is that revising to bypass is not ideal for much weight loss. If you have reflux that is something else to consider however.

Circlesis how much did you gain over the 6? I’m at 6 years as well. And have you lost any weight since?

I should add that I recently revised from sleeve to DS due to some regain after 6 years

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
