Hi there; My name is Lee. 53 year old female in Charlotte NC. I had the sleeve about 4 years ago. I weighed 250 at 5'4. The lowest I got was 190. Now, i think perhaps menopause is setting in, and I am eating everything in sight! I have not gained much actual weight back, (I am 205), but I am gaining inches. All my clothes are sooooo tight. I am miserable. I am going for a bariatric consult next month. I dont know if the Sleeve can revised (upgraded), or if perhaps I should consider the gastric bypass. ?? Any thoughts in any direction? Much appreciated! Love and Light, Lee

Thanks Quincy. Yes, workouts are integral. However being pre- menopausal leaves me drained constantly - not like the old me at all. And yes, the protein also is huge! Thank you for the gentle reminders 😊

Hi Tina.... yep that’s me... hungry constantly and for sweets! It’s awful! OB visit next week, since Endocrine guy said my thyroid is fine. Ughhhhh so frustrated with myself and menopause! 😩

Thanks Ladies. And I have read up on the RNY- just not as popular these days. And yes, I have thought of the IFasting. I just need to do it!! LOL I assume it is best done at night? So you are fasting for 16 hours- how many days a week?

Thanks I read about that, but didnt like the potential risks.
