I have been wanting to do this for a while any info anyone can share

I had my surgery the Rouen Y in 2003 I’m doing good but I am getting older and I think that’s why I feel like I’m gaining. Not sure what the revision is all about I was told I may need one but if it’s not something I truly need I’m good the way I am. Thank you for your response

Fruits cause gas as well especially bananas and oranges I am 17 years out Post Surgery and have found eggs broccoli potatoes carrots beans cheese onions bread tortillas pasta and more cause gas and foul smelling toilet habits. I have gone through several different diet plans and you just need to test what works for you every ones bodies react differently to the foods .

I am a food addict. And Bypass isn't a cure.

I’m 17 years out and have had issues in wanting certain things like candy and fast food but Soda I truly used to drink it all day long after surgery not once did I crave it or want it I thought I would have problems with wanting soda as well @Dadorf5 but truly mind over matter try not to think about it yes it’s hard but you can do it -
How do you handle the "How much have you lost" question?
Bsilva324 replied to FindYourFire's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I used to get that all the time I would tell them I lost half a person. But I had my surgery so long ago I don’t get asked anymore
