Sleeve Revision

[Natalija2017 2]

Hi everyone,

Has anyone on here had a sleeve revision? I had a sleeve almost 7 years ago my highest weight was 356lbs went down to 169 as my lowest and although I have to admit that I didn't quite loose it the way I was supposed to or: drinking coffee and smoking and working out everyday... my weight after 2 yrs started to creep up. I was still happy even at 185. Long story short I had another child 5 years later and my weight went back up to 224 and after baby went back down to about 210. Anyway two years later I had a sleeve revision on 9/12 day of surgery I was 247 today 5 weeks out I am 227 20lbs in 5 weeks it's not nearly enough. I am so depressed. I don't eat anything more than 800 calories a day sometimes only 5-600 a day I walk i just don't know what I am doing wrong. I feel like I am not where I should be. Anyone with a revision have this issue? I do feel full and I stop eating? So why am I at a two week plateau!! This is very frustrating!!!

If once didn’t solve my weight problem, damned if I would do it again. I would not go through the Hair loss, Vitamin deficiencies, etc. I’m done.

This is interesting. I didn't know a sleeve revision could be done. Sorry this happened. Maybe you are just stalled? Could you have done a sleeve to bypass?

What did your surgeon say? Hopefully, the weightloss will start again.

But you don't go through the same issues like the first time because your body already was in shock

Seriously I applaud anyone with the strength to keep going. I am at 190 and the scales refuse to move. On the positive note, my husband lost 100 lbs and I am the happiest wife on the universe because he would not have done the sleeve if i had not led him into it. I had diabetes, HBP and asthma, which qualified me. My 70 year old husband is thin and not dieting for the first time In his entire life. Years of watching him starve, Diet, be made fun of, make me so thankful for the VSG! And have not had to call Rescue in four years, thank you Jesus. Diabetes was killing him. Good luck all!
