Why I am Revising from RNY to DS
X-Posted on the Revisions and Failed Weightloss messageboards as well.
Truely, I feel that my RNY failed me............... "There is no point in losing weight and then gaining it back. This only causes enormous psychological devistation."
I was 175 pounds when I was in grade school. And 230’s in 7th-8th grade. And 260’s as a senior in high school .
Here I was over 300 pounds:
When I was 30, I had RNY (in 2002) Here are 3 years of pics with the weight difference:
I had started my weight re-gain in 2003. I weighed 150 in May of 2003.
Here I am in October 2003:
And, as you can see below, (my mom & sis with her 1st boy, Joshua). On my sister Debi’s b-day in 2003 or 2004.
The weight I am maintaining now, 225-230. And have been maintaining for 7 years.
July 2009 at 230 pounds:
I hate my physical body. HATE IT. This is why I am continuing my journey in exploring a revision from RNY to DS.
