Just an update with me. It's been a year since my revision and im at goal at 170 although I still want to lose a few more. 135 pounds lost in a year. Revision surgery doesnt have to be any slower. It's up to you as to how successful you are. These are the best days of my life. Looking forward to skin surgery next year.

I am so envious u guys are band free! Ugh June 23 cannot get here fast enough. So glad that it wasnt so rough for u. You are a great inspiration. Happy healing

Marijuana is addictive...having lived with an addict it does effect you in many ways. It makes you dependent on it to fall asleep (at least it did for my ex)It effects your memory big time. Yes it has many good properties but thinking there are no negative side effects is wrong. I also wonder if it increases ulcers like cigerettes do? No idea.

Loveeee myfitnesspal. I honestly dont think i would have been successful without it

I also had the RNY at the same time my band was removed.

Well i also had 2 strictures along the way so i had 2 weeks that i could barely get anything down at all. scale went down fast but then stalled of course when i started eating again. My real secret is not one that is really a secret. I just use myfitnesspal and track every morsal and i mean every bite. I dont go over 1k calories either or i wont lose. No rice, potatoes, bread or Pasta. It is what most people that have been successful have followed. You can do this too!

I was 305 before surgery. Now im 231 and its not even 4 months out. You are going to be so happy to get that band out and live a much better healthier life. I can eat chicken again!!

Im looking forward to hot flashes lol

Scared too! U are not alone. I figure revision to bypass is my last chance. Hope it works out for all of us

Also make sure you arent anemic. I am always freezing but feeling a bit warmer lately because my Iron is up to 12...which it was 9.

Im looking forward to hot flashes lol

I had such bad gerd with the band. Revised to RNY June 23 and havent had it again since. Let me tell you not having Gerd is even better than the weight loss. sleep is the most precious thing.

I will be taking a bottle of fabreeze with me to work lol problem solved

I took 3 weeks and so glad i did. Even then the fatigue was still bad. This is major surgery. As major as having a kidney removed. Take the time to heal properly.

That is restriction. Your tummy is full or a piece of food is too big to go through. I usually force myself to get sick at that point. Rather that then the feeling of getting stabbed. Not fun....but yeah probably didnt chew well enough.

I just straight up tell them ive had weight loss surgery and that solves the issues. I'm weird and very proud i had surgery and i dont care who knows lol..shrugs. i think everyone here is an adult and can make their own decisions if they want to follow their doctors rules or not. I just wish all the docs had the same rules! Good luck wuth your journey

I'm 32 away from 200. Rny on 6-10. I found myself sitting with my legs crossed twice today! First time in LONG time! Congratulations #Shan5311 !!!

Im weird i count the weight i lost pre surgery as well with the 10 day liquid diet. To me those were well earned lost pounds and i would have not lost them without doing the surgery. Shrugs

It took almost 2 weeks of gaining and losing the same pound but now the scale is finally moving! Im out if starvation mode..yeahhh...i hope the OP has also started having success again. 56 pounds down
