I am preparing to have revision from VBG to duedonal switch by Dr Syn in Lubbock. Just starting process.
Anything is possible. Sometimes the body holds on liquids- or you are getting seriously constipated.

I'll be 2 months out from my DS revision on 4/1. I haven't lost a single pound in almost 2 weeks. Is this normal?
Did you have any issues after revision? I'm scheduled for one on 6/5/18 due to acid reflux. I'm scared but the reflux is horrible.

You won't lose weight as fast with a revision as you did with your original surgery. 2 pounds a week is great for a revision. Just keep following your program to the letter and you will lose the weight. Patience!

Just had revision due to SEVERE GERD but would still do it all again!
had revision from sleeve to any on 12/27.....lost 17 lbs the week before surgery as I was very sick due to allergic reaction....lost 29 lbs since surgery.....about 2 lbs per week. Seems low to me?
Hopefully your surgeon will work on your behalf to appeal the decision.
