Got Lapband 8/07; Having Gastric Bypass Revision

[melbart01 0]

Hello all;

I was banded in 8/07 and have had limited success. I was down 125 at my lightest but am gaining back weight quickly. I saw a new surgeon today who is confident that a revision/RNY will give me greater long term success. I sure hope so.

If all goes well I will have the procedure done in about a month. I'm scared but hopeful. I wanted to reacquaint myself with this site so I could connect with others who have had similar struggles and experiences as I have. I am a food junky and I wish there was a magic spell to change that! I need to stay focused and enjoy what I can in moderation of course.

Has anyone else found success with a RNY after a lapband?
