Only being a year out of surgery, I'm still sort of losing weight, and have not considered looking at the revision board. Maybe this procedure is being discussed there. If not, for your reading pleasure. 

Another WLS procedure

No real comments here, except I had never heard of this before. Just sharing.

A Rose or Stomaphyx procedure by any other name.   They have very limited success rates and are very often NOT covered by insurance for this reason.

Most people *****gain do not have a physical anatomical reason for doing so - in most cases it's the food/drink choices that lead to regain, so most people would be just as successful if they followed the program without undergoing the surgery!

The key phrase in this article was "I thought I was cured," she says. "I thought I could eat like regular people."

The biggest cause of regain is lack of pre-op and post-op education, IMHO.
