Have you had a revision? If so, please take my poll :-)
Good Morning
I can't believe March is gone and spring and summer is around the corner.
Those that know me know I am very passionate about us, all we go through and how we live. Please take my poll and be honest. There is a personal reason I ask and will post later why and share.
This is for NON MEDICAL reason revision! Defined by a surgeon or doctor doing test/s and has confirmation there is a medical reason you have regained.
Did you have a revision?
How long after your first surgery date?
How much did you regain?
After the revision have you kept it off at least 3-5 years? (if it's not been that long let me know how long)
What if anything did you do differently the second time around?
Thank you, I appreciate your help

Did you have a revision? Yes. Lapband to RNY
How long after your first surgery date? First Surgery 12/2008 - RNY 2/13/2017 9 Years
How much did you regain? 65ish pounds
After the revision have you kept it off at least 3-5 years? (if it's not been that long let me know how long) I'm 7 weeks post op.
What if anything did you do differently the second time around? Food restrictions and diets were familiar from Lapband. The feeling of being full is different. No "getting stuck" with RNY. Great weight loss
Hope this helps
