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.

      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.
