Had VSG 4 years ago. SW 285. Got down to 215 within 4 months and never lost another pound. My weight would go down 3 lbs and up 2, then stall and restart. My surgeon acted like I was crazy when I talked to him about why I couldn’t lose consistently. Started regain 7 months post-op and now I’m back up to 250. My hunger never left, I was hungry day after surgery. I vomit still when I eat dense or dry foods and therefore sometimes avoid proteins for carbs to avoid discomfort and vomiting. Acid reflux is awful too. I wish I had bypass instead as I’m nauseous and uncomfortable every day either hungry, heartburn or uncomfortable. Thoughts?

Should I convert to bypass?

Thoughts on revision?

I eat 1500 calories a day. I did go to my surgeon as my comment states. Acid started a few months ago. Thanks for your condescending and rude comments. I cannot change eating habits if what I eat makes me sick. I’m looking for feedback from others who have encountered the problem not tell me I need an overeating group without understanding the physical issues.
