gastric bypass revision on May 8

Please give me some advice, I had the gastric by pass in 2005 & now scheduled for the DS but I'm really scared because I too only want to be at a weigh goal of 175lbs & wAs told with the DS I will loose 70lbs or more, right now I weight 215lbs & Dnt want to loose that much. What is the difference you notice going from the gastric to the DS

Yes off the fertility pills. I wanna get down lower before I think about trying again. Maybe in 3-5 more years 

I'm an rny to rny revision. I started at 235 in January 2013. I'm 148 right now. 

Do you have any advice for me? How are ur eating habits? Exercise habits? 

My advice is not to overdo it. After my revision, I was pushing myself too much. Regardless of how you feel after your revision, you still just had surgery. Listen to your body. 

I'm still working on my eating habits. I know I need to eat a lot more but I struggle with getting in all the protein. I forget at times to eat.  That was a bad habit I had the first time around and I ended up losing too much weight and looking sickly.  I've been trying to plan snacks into my work day per my nutritionist's suggestion. I hoping it'll become routine eventually.

My exercise isn't anything great. I need to do more of that and probably a bigger variety. I do 100 crunches every weekday once I get home from work. More recently I started walking a few times a week at this large park we have here in Buffalo. It's 1.7 miles each time around. I've started going 2 times around, and working slowly up to 3times. 

My exercise bike, I do the program that takes me 20 minutes to do. I forgot how many miles it is, but it changes the biking patterns up. I think it's something like 10- 13 miles. Lol, I'm slow but I just am trying to keep moving. That I also do 1-2 times a week. 

I signed up for the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge in June. My goal is not to be the very last person to finish, lol.

I still am very cautious to celebrate success as I feel I'm still in that "honeymoon" stage. I know regardless, my weight has been and always will be a battle for me.

Wow thanks that's awesome advice. The first time around in the first 6 months I played by the rules.. but as soon as I hit a year I broke all the rules.. Went to drinking alot of beer. Then stopped drinking and went to fertility pills and shots blowing me up even more. And I thought I would never gain after surgery . Boy was I wrong and bam. . Back to almost where I started. I actually just went to the extreme and did a extreme makeover weight loss move. . I threw out my living room furniture and now am slowly buying kettle bells weights .. workout dvd. I love zumba and Jillian michaels.  Now I'm gonna have a second chance and I know exactly where I went wrong and a 3rd surgery is not an option.  I went to a consult in ny and one in nj for the ds but I take certain meds that I can't be without and the ds might be a really bad move. So I decided to redo the bypass. But my doctor said he's not gonna make it more distal. He's gonna make smaller pouch and fix hernia and stoma opening that's enlarged. I keep hearing revision rny to rny people not loosing much weight only 15-20pounds . I hope I can lose the way u do ;)
