need2bthin!

I have seen several people mention gaining weight after 5yrs post-op. I too am starting to experience weight gain and no longer feel the restriction like I use to when I eat. Had anyone had the revision to help get back on track?

I suppose I should clarify my weight gain is less than 10 lbs (fluctuation). I just don't feel the restriction I once felt. Now I still measure food and exercise. So I've not necessarily fell off the wagon. I just want to ensure my pouch is not stretched out or developed a enlargement at the fundus, in order to hear of weight gain in the future.

Thank you for letting me know this is an option. Is the cost about the same as the first time?

My hair fell out like crazy. I'm 5yrs post op and still not at the thickness I was pre op so I purchase cashmere hair extensions 😉 best purchase ever

I had my sleeve 5 years ago and I can tell I've lost a lot of restriction that I previously had. Has anyone had the fundus revision?

If you don't mind me asking what was the reason, weight gain? Also how do they perform it? Did insurance cover it? Thank you

I am in the same situation. I had considered doing a sleeve revision to give me the restriction again.

I am curious as to what other sleevers daily intake consist of? How far along are you 6 month, 1 year, or so? Are you in a maintenance phase or are you still losing? How much water do you consume and vitamins? Okay, GO! Thanks

This has really given me some meal suggestions and I am sure it has others. I had never considered oats before as I was told by my NUT (which was a nut) that it was forbidden.

I thought I was the only one who felt like their tailbone had grown at least 2 inches since surgery :-p. I bought an ortho cushion for my car seat and a knee pillow for sleep, due to knobby knees.

Great job!

Also would anyone be interested in a 5:2 buddy?

Would some mind posting their meal plans for the 500 cal days? I am 1 year out right now and I have noticed I am grazing... I haven't gained any weight but I don't won't to either and I need to stop this grazing!!! thanks

I have heard about fitbit. Could someone explain it to me, and is it worth the money? Did it help you? Thanks

This month marks my 7th month, the hunger and snacking demons feel like they are kicking into full gear! The weight loss has stalled for a week (2nd time for me) and I remember freaking out before during my last stall. So my question is should I expect this stall to break on it's ow. Or should I adjust my diet??? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Granted, due to the severe weather conditions I have been unable to get out and workout like I'd like, but I have continued to do some indoor activities. I also measure my food 2ounces per meal and calories <700

I am looking for some good snack options. I am 6m out and I have noticed my snack cravings are getting intense please help! Thanks guys!

Pre-op: size 24 & XXL top Post-op: 7 months 85lbs Size 7/8 jeans & Med top I am a hippy girl so I'm amazed that I was able to fit in a 7/8 junior jean!!!

Thanks! My NUT is a quack, every time I see her she just keeps telling me to keep doing what I'm doing until it stops working....lol duh! I will try to up my caloric intake and see if it helps.

I always do the lettuce wraps! The Leftovers are great for several meals

Sorry I'm sooo very late Bea! I have hit a stall/wall....totally expected. Maybe it will get moving again. Surely my 6m honeymoon (sleeve--moon) isn't over

Omg!!! Peanut butter and caramel rice cakes sounds like heaven! Thanks for that suggestion (you're my hero)

Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions! I will definitely be making a grocery run this weekend.

I thought I was the only one! I was honestly feeling so guilty about all my snacking. I eat several times a day. I can't seem to go without it. I will try taking an acid reducer and try some of the other suggestions. Thanks for this post.

Finally the scale is moving again!!! 173.1
