Topic: Need Recommendations

I had RNY 17 years ago and even though I have not gained all my weight back, I have gained! I am looking for recommendations for a surgeon in TN that performs revisions. I have called Knoxville, Vanderbilt, and Memphis and they say they don't perform them. My surgeon has retired. Thanks for any help!

Hi,

I was wanting to see how your revision went? I hope you are doing well.

Thank you- Teresa

I understand. I have even gone back to Jenny Craig, and Nutri System... but the foods are not really good for me -lots of carbs, not enough protein. Very frustrating. But I refuse to give up. I need to beat this battle and I truly believe it is a lot of work in the mind - my over eating really stems from mindless eating and eating out of certain emotions. It is not necessarily what I eat, but rather why, when and how much.

Hang in there. Stop the gaining if you can. That is a great first step. At least it has been for me.

Unfortunately I also have a big weight gain after exactly 10 years. I can't find a good dietician. They suggest eating carbs etc. crazy. But I only get full with carbs.

I am in your boat!!! I had my Roux-en-Y on 06/29/10. My lowest weight was 141. I am currently 47 years old and post-menopausal. I don't eat a lot but not eating the correct foods and liquids. No sugar at all, because I still get sick. I am currently back to 205pds and 50 of it has been since the pandemic started. Today is the first day of my pouch reset. I am going by this diet, which was our diet when we first had surgery. https://www.lasvegasbariatrics.com/the-bariatric-pouch-reset /?fbclid=IwAR0of0vsjAY7YMTgLm8-DHZcZ7Ka5BQ-46Q1LijfbmVJ50wqK 7OJXqWH9Z8

No more fried foods, no more foods high in fat, no more simple carbs, and no more alcohol!!! I'm going to give it a solid 6 months to see if it works before considering a revision. It's now 12pm and I'm so hungry. It's clear liquids only day. I have to retrain my brain not to eat when I'm not hungry and not eat while sitting in front of the TV. Good luck.

I have a Facebook page if you would like to follow. @andreawls
