Revision to RnY Did Not Help

My wife had an RnY in 2006 and lost about 30 lbs. while maintaining a strict diet.  Originally the surgeon bypassed 120 centimeters of her small intestine.  She then had a revision in 2009 where the surgeon bypassed all except the last 100 centimeters of her intestine.  This was considered radical but she has not lost a pound even after that!

Can ANYone, especially bariatric surgeons, offer an explanation of this massive failure in multiple  procedures?  What can be done?

Perhaps not changing lifestyle and diet?

Guess he didn't like that answer.

maybe your wife should call her surgeon to inquire about what is going on. maybe they can help her to get on the right track to lose weight. I pray that she gets the answers she is looking for .

Unfortunatley, I have to agree that not changing lifestyle can be a major cause of failure.  I was banded almost two years ago and have changed my lifestyle very little and subsequently lost very little weight.  I am now considering revison, but not withouth seeing a psychologist to explore if there is a psychological reason that I can't change.  My first surgery, I was not required or offered any psychological counseling, so I really wasn't prepared for what to expect.
