Anyone gain weight after 3 years surgery



Recommended Posts

I believe this happens to many. Weight loss does get a bit tougher in maintenance .

It is a daily issue for myself and many.

I hope to put great days together and keep within my healthy range . Lots of Protein Drinks if I am up a bit.(banded 12/06)

This is a life long lesson for me. And I keep getting schooled!!

Some days are better than others. I am not giving up on this!!

Hope you can find a way that works for your body. Sometimes staying a bit over a weight you like is what your body is saying to you. Whether you listen, or choose to battle it is truly up to you ! Good luck and keep posting!

Hi, so I'm in my first year and have not gained anything back but I'm maintaining the weight I have now. However my little sister had it done over three years ago and I can tell you she's gained almost 40 pounds. I tell her all she needs to do is eat better and go to the gym but it's really hard once you get back into that funk. I really think there's a way to back. Maybe try to do your postop diet again 2 shakes and a healthy meal or just shakes and see if you can get yourself back on track. I wish you the very best

yes. I have gained 25 pounds back and looking into a resleeve or mini gastric bypass. I never met goal so I actually have about 60 pounds tolose.

One doctor that I am in touch with suggested a surgery called the OCC Sleeve Rescue where they reduce your pouch size,

They say they have done many of these for patients that were sleeved in the US and Canada that have lost their original restriction with the sleeve, or never really had enough restriction.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
