3 years after surgery has anyone not reached their goal weight???

I had rny surgery 7/2007 only lost 70 lbs, have stayed same weight.  

I had my RNY in 2001, lost about 100 (not even enough to be considered close to goal).  Life threw me some curve balls and I had a slight regain of about 25-30 lbs.  At my family doctor's recommendation, I joined Weigh****chers and lost the rest of the weight.  I worked the Weigh****chers program with what I should have been doing with the RNY diet.  I'm now at my goal.

For me, it was a matter of working on the food issues and forcing myself to change those habits.

The fact that you've lost 70 lbs and kept it off is a good thing.  You might need to change up some of eating or exercise program.

I had RNY 8-2007 and I'm 10 pounds from my "personal goal" and on target for my "surgeons goal"

I have had 2 babies back to back since my surgery in 2007

 

Depending on your starting Wt. and how much skin you have you may not get to a normal BMI without skin removal.  Get a consult from a PS and see what they have to say.

I had RNY surg 6/2007.  I started at 305lbs at 5' 2".  I was 52 years old and obese most of my life.    My WLS surgeon did not give a goal wt.  At the one year check=up RN asked what my goal was and I said 150 . The was the  wt I was at  in high school.    She said that sounded do able.  I got  to a stable wt. of 156-158.  This is still overweight.   My PS said I have very little exess fat, mostly skin every where. I had  a LBL 4/2010.  The PS took 13 lbs. of skin off.  I still have between 5-10 lbs of skin on my arms ,breast and legs to have removed yet.

I had surgery 8/2007 and only lost 65 lbs. Last year I went ahead and had a circumfrential tt and a bl because my weight had been the same for over a year. He took off about 12 lbs and my weight went down 12 lbs. Now, one year later I have re-gained the 12 lbs. but in different places, mainly my face and legs. I am just hungry all the time it seems. I'm very disappointed with myself. I know the things I should be doing, but it is hard and the hunger seems constant.
It's good to hear from someone near my surgery date with almost the same weight loss. My original goal was 100 lbs.

noeldawn,
You should have yourself checked for an ulcer. Constant hunger is a sign of ulcers.

 I did not know that! I'm not having any pain, though. I do have a "rumbly" tummy a lot though, and as soon as 1 hour after meals my stomach will growl something terrible, like I haven't eaten in a long time. Thank you for the reply. I will try to research this and ask my doctor about it. I've not been back to see him since my one-year check-up. Thanks again!
