Recommended Posts

I had my RNY way back on Feb 14,2000 and I have gained most of the weight back! I am now seeing a Dr. Who just ran some test to see why I gained so much weight back. They found out that my stomach in now a 7 which means that it isa medium size. He said that they can do a rev. But it will be harder to loose weight then the first time I had my RNY. I told him that is ok, anything will help I hope! Has anyone started gaining? Or has anyone gained and then did a rev to loose what they gained? If not good, but I still need someone to chat with :) so plz let's help each other :).

@becjyjorm i had mine in 2004, I initially lost 170lbs and have gained back 53 in the last two yrs. I am scheduled for a revision on 8/20, my pouch was not stretched but I do have a dialated anastomosis which is the conection from the stoma to the intestine. What I have read is that it is a technical error that can occur. However I know that half of my gain has been to lack of discipline and bad habits creeping up. I also have tried finding people/information on rny to rny revision but the information out there ia very limited. By the way i love dachsunds, I have one too! I can definetly let u know how it goes and working4shoes just went threw it so now it is 3 of us in the same boat!

Hi, I'm Laura and I had my RnY revision surgery August 6, 2010. From that date until last year when I left my husband, I had lost a total of 140lbs. BUT, I. The last year I have gained 31 lbs, have totally disregarded my post op diet and am totally disgusted with myself. I want to get back on track, but I am lacking the proverbial "kick in the ass"!! Lol. I live near Cornwall ON Canada. Maybe we could be support for each other?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
