2 years post op, not doing well :( sleeve redo/duromine?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I'm new to this forum, I'm 22 and have a beautiful 7 month old.. Not long after getting pregnant and realising my appetite had increased i started putting weight on.. So I started at 165kg, got to 102, got pregnant and I'm 125kg now :( has anyone had the sleeve redo, OR tried duromine?

Seems to me you are a perfect weight. Never heard of duromine

Diet pills are at best a temporary fix and dangerous on your heart. I would start with seeing a bariatric doctor and getting their opinion.

Sorry, I read it as lbs, not Kgs... No, I agree - diet pills are not the way to go... I'm 3 years out today and have put on 14lbs since my lowest weight - I'm not a happy cookie with this either. Trying to get back onto a good (no bad snacking) plan

I am 2 1/2 years post op and I gained 30 lbs this past year. Due to life circumstances I fell off track. (Mom diagnosed with cancer. She has good days and bad days so I take it one day at a time) I have been trying to get back on track and I have trouble exercising due to low hemoglobin levels I get too tired. I'm thinking about trying Qsymia, a prescription weight loss pill just to help get me jump started. I know people that have lost 20-30 lbs with it and feel great.

I would suggest talking with your bariatric team/NUT/PCP, and going back to basics before even considering anything a drastic as diet pills or a new surgery.

It may just be a matter of refocusing and recommitting to your program, which you can do! You have come so far already.

Embrace the Stall! (Which can apply to weight gain.)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
