Im 6ft 1 inch tall I was 365 before surgery and diabetic on insulin pump and 8 pills a day. Fast forward 10 yrs Im 168 lbs and 20 lbs of which is excess skin in abdominal area went to pastic surg. for consult. I had the RNY done and i have never had dumping at all. My problem I can at whatever cake candy chocolate pasta rice ghost chili peppers I meant everything. I eat at least 10 times a day right now eating a large soft pretzel. I just keep loosing weight. The one good thing after surgery I am no longer diabetic no more insulin or pills my a1c is terrific. the only thing off is that I'm 50 yrs old and my testosterone level is that of a 21 year old male. mribs and shoulder and back bones are very visible and the kicker is that I don't exercise at all. Im a home body watch a lot of tv all day in recliner barely more just to eat and drink lots of soda and goto bathroom thats all i do but keep shedding weight

I assume (although you don't say) that this weight loss issue is a recent development? If so, unexplained weight loss, especially after a long period of weight stability, can be a sign of very serious illness unrelated to your weight loss surgery. See your regular doctor and get some tests.

And your point is ? Newbies don't listen. I have kept my weight off for almost. 13 years but I work very very hard at it. I ride bike a minimum of 5 miles a day. It can be done with a lot of hard work . How about a before and after pic sir
