I was just wondering what others had heard about weightloss after a revision. Is it a slower process?

I have heard it was but I actually lost faster this time then I did the first time.

I reached my first goal, which was a normal BMI, in about 6 1/2 months. I am a little over 9 month out now and have about 5lbs to get to my final goal.

It's been slower for me, but I am only at 4.5 months.

It's been much the same for me and others that have had surgery around the same time. In fact I started lighter than most, and have a higher percentage of loss than a lot of the January 2011 group.
