How are you doing? Have you spoken to your doctor about your interest in revision or possibly trying a pharmaceutical alternative? There are so many now! After seeking help with my knees Dr. only x-ray'd and insisted getting weight off would help. After discussing prescription alternatives finally the only one that was appropriate for body was Wellbutrin/Naltrexone also known as Contrave. It has made it so much easier to say no to overeating and bad habits and I'm losing finally.

Something to consider is that with every surgical intrusion to your abdomen you increase the risk of adhesions and hernias. We have so many avenues of health even before pills or shots...Weigh****chers is just one that has always had a sound program and offers avenues of great support.

Hope you are doing well and busy enjoying your summer. Best wishes for whatever path you choose with your weight journey.

I had my RNY in 2010 and lost 107 lbs. I kept it off for 8 years then started to gain again. I went back to my surgeon and had all the tests done but my pouch was fine and there was nothing they could do except telling me to watch what I eat and do more exercise. I was going through divorce and work stress so I started drinking wine almost every day. That made it worse and I gained close to 60 lbs. my blood pressure was crazy high, poor sleep and depression and anxiety started to crawl back into my life. Long story short I'm now on ZepBound since September 2024 and lost 61 lbs. due to high blood pressure my insurance approved the ZepBound for a year and I'm just scared what will happen when I stop that. Now that I lost all the weight I'm off my anxiety meds as well as sleeping pills. I don't drink alcohol at all and no soda or sugary drinks or fried food. Even my blood pressure medicine prescription went down. I am losing a lot of hair and my bones are very weak now that's because I did not follow the doctors advice and didn't take vitamins as recommended. I started to take the vitamins now so it will take time. I still don't have the appetite and get nauseous and uncomfortable if I eat fast or extra. I try to stick to fruits and other healthy foods especially since I'm vegetarian so it's hard to get enough protein
