Thank you I will talk with my nutritionist tomorrow…and reach out to the surgeon I know that because this was endoscopic it won’t be quite like when I had my original surgery back in 2017 but I will definitely ask

Hello all .I am 47 yrs old and was sleeve in 2017..Before surgery I was 295 got down to 175 . Fast forward I am divorced single mother and I began drinking heavily gained 30 lbs so I did the endoscopic revision where they re-tighten the stomach the first week I lost 7 lbs mind u I had my revision 9/5/2024. I am almost a month out I don’t feel any restriction and I never feel full… The surgeon said I won’t feel any real restriction because Im not on a regular diet yet . i am on soft foods now but I feel myself getting very depressed because I haven’t loss anymore weight please any suggestions would be helpful.I really want to feel like myself again and lose these 30 lbs..

Well as you all know I had my procedure on sept 6 and now here it is Oct 20 and I haven’t lost in fact I think ive gained Ive been doing cardio and i go back to regular diet in 4 days and I am so so scared. I couldn’t even come on here and post because i got so depressed about having this revision procedure.. I have a appointment with my nutritionist on Tuesday and I’m just gonna put it out there . He felt like part of it could be constipation so I am trying ducolax and see if it’s just blockage idk

Thank you so much for the links I will be looking into this and I will def keep you updated

Arabesque I appreciate you so much you have no Idea.I was thinking I made a mistake but I am going to trust the process… And do everything I know to do meaning I guess it’s time to do some light cardio lol… I haven’t exercised in so long but I gotta get back at it.. You speak like someone of experience and I truly am grateful for that… I will keep you updated and if you need to vent as well I am here 😊 I have read your messages a few times because they give me comfort.. My family and friends don’t understand because im not 295 anymore but when the scale starts tipping back up I panicked they couldn’t believe I paid for another procedure but I had to do this for me… I have to start living for me.. I will trust the process and fight my emotions in the meantime

Thank you this has really got me into an depression mood. I have been praying and crying because I don’t want to go back… I am even scared to eat soft food . The surgeon told me that I want feel like I did with the original surgery in 2017 but he said I will do great although right now Im debating going back to liquids because I really don’t want to go back to my original size… I know this is a tool but I feel like my tool isn’t working.. And he did say the same as you that my stomach has to heal and the swelling has to go down which I don’t feel swollen but I guess because it was endoscopic..
