6 Months Post Mini Gastric Bypass & Not Losing Weight and Gaining 2kg



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on October 7, 2018 I was 120 kg at the the time. It has been exactly 6 months and I have lost 23.5 kg, I weight 96.5 kg. But what I do not understand is that the last 2 months I have not lost anything and what is more troublesome I gained back 2 kg. I started gaining weight! And its only 6 months since operation, is this normal? I have not changed my diet, everything is the same. Yes I am getting my hungry back, intact it is back in full throttle, at night I am starving. But I am only 6 months post-op, is this normal? Why is this happening? Why am I gaining weight?? I was certain I was going to lose 35 kg, very very disappointed, confused, and dont understand how on earth I am gaining 2 kg already!?

Any insight advise stories would be so helpful thank you community!

      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?
