Slow weight loss since RNY Revision
I'm no expert and haven't had revision yet but that seems like a great loss in less than a month. I have heard that revision loss is slower than virgin surgery.

I had a distal bypass revision on 7/6/16. I gained 18 lbs of fluid in hospital and have lost an additional 22 lbs. I'm 2 months out and have malabsorption, so I think you're doing great. Revisions do lose slower.

Hey Charmaine,
Your doing great! Revision is slower i know. I had surgery revision from band to sleeve May24, 2016 im 3 1/2 month out and have lost 26 lbs. I was in a stall for 4 weeks of that it just started to move down again when my nutritionist said to change my diet a little bit. It seems that i was eating too much protein. go figure ..
but during the 4 week stall i just kept doing what i was doing (following plan) and i was LOSING INCHES. so i m very content with that. now the scale has to catch up..
Speak to your nutritionist and go over what you are eating and drinking and see what she/he says.
good luck .

Hi Charmaine I just had my surgery 3 and a half weeks ago and was feeling bumped because for like five days I stayed the same mine is also a revision. today i weight my self and finally went down 2 more lbs for a total of 21 lbs. Reading your post i feel better thanks for your honesty. I would like to know how are you doing now.
