Input needed on possible DS revision
I'm sorry I wasn't more clear. I had a DS revision from an RNY back in 2008. I lost a fair amount of weight, but have gained back almost all I lost. My primary doctor suggested going back to my surgeon to see if there was something wrong etc.
I watch my carbs, drink my protein shakes. Avoid sweets, cakes and stuff like that. My only indugances have been chips. I've started to cut sugar out of my diet and upped my protein and water intake. It seems like no matter what I do, I continue to gain weight. Four pounds last month.
I recently had two total knee replacements, so for most of 2011, my ability to exercise has been limited. But I walk everyday now and am improving.
I'm mainly looking for someone who has gained weight back after their DS. I know they are rare, but that's what I am facing. My surgeon once told me he could shorten my CC, so we'll see what happens when I se him next week.
I have tried low carbing, elimination, tracking my foods etc. No matter what I do, I will lose a few pounds, then stop and start gaining again.
Just wondering if anyone has had these issues...

I did try that website first. Although I did get some quality advice from the majority of the members. I was berrated by a vet and told to basically stop whining. SO. I left. I have no need for such negative and caustic people.
Overall, there is good adivce there. But for one person. Thanks anyways.

Where did you post on the other site? I can't seem to find you. 
You can't let ONE person drive you away from a resource that can be priceless to you. Really, ONE person. There are almost 1300 members of that site and growing. Take what you want from the posts and leave the rest. Don't take things so personal.
