Woohoo! A Weight has Been Lifted

Hello friends,

My surgeon's assistant called today with the wonderful news....my bypass revision plus hernia surgery is scheduled for Tues morning on May 29th.

Can hardly wait to put an end to my health woes!

Just a little concerned because I was forewarned that it might be another open surgery, due to all of my prior surgeries/complications.

Meeting with my NUT on Friday to refresh my memory on the beginner basics of eating, etc.

That's wonderful! Best wishes for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery!

Congrats!!! I am also going for the revision sleeve to bypass. Is there a reason why like GERD, or insufficient weight loss? I am hearing more and more of these cases, and glad to know I am not the only one.

I reached my surgeon's goal weight already, but have continued to drop weight... and lately very quickly, because I cannot eat solids without severe pain. So yes, for me, GERD is the reason for converting to the bypass.

Good luck with your revision as well
