does anyone know if this procedure is being done by anyone in the little rock area. I just moved to arkansas. I am 5 years out and have put a good 15 pounds back on in the last year. I started at 300 currently at 190, would still like to lose 30 pounds...Does anyone have any suggestions?...Thanks so much...Carrie

Hi there,
Welcome to AR!

A few questions. First of all, you've done really well and to come so far, but are you sure you really need another procedure?  I don't think any of the doctors here in AR do the Rose Procedure, but I checked online to see what it was and there are many doctors is different parts of the country that do it. I did learn that it is for a FAILED rny. Do you think a 15 lb gain would qualify as a failure?

Are you working the plan? Eating protein before anything else, exercising and getting in all your fluids? Going back to basics for a time might be what you need to get back on track. See what happens before you go through another surgical procedure (even if it is non-invasive), not to mention the expense.

Take care and good luck!

Susan
