Cuz others will be able to look at what you've done and be helped by it. Cuz all the time we read here about people needing a revision but are afraid to do it for fear of losing more weight! The struggle to maintain is real! ((hugs)) 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I was looking through threads it was usually a mix of GERD/substantial regain but that could be because they are the most vocal. I can only think of 3 people needing revision while already at goal 😳 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngieBear 2,524 Posted July 31, 2019 BMI 37, Score 50/70. Obese, recommended weight loss. It said my goal weight of 135 is overly aggressive. But, we’ll see. I’m halfway there now. I actually take this score as winning. I am SO HAPPY to be out of the super morbidly obese range, forever. It feels like a huge weight has been lifted (har har har, I crack myself up). I also loved being able to see their recommendation of losing weight, and instead of hanging my head like “I know, I know”, my mental dialogue was “on it!”. It’s comforting knowing that I’m utilizing the tool that is most likely to lead to long term success. 2 1 1 ms.sss, FluffyChix, Orchids&Dragons and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least once per week, and that tells me it's bound to be a consideration. I think being at goal and struggling to keep your weight up has got to be scary. (Although I would love to experience that for about a week... ) And then to add to that a surgery that isn't only restrictive, but malabsorptive...Ring. Ring...Hello stress?? I'm gonna need a bigger boat... 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
