Is it possible to regain most of your weight?
I don't even plan on it but I was thinking about whether it was physically possible to gain 100-200+ lbs back. I am assuming you lose 80-100% of your weight after surgery. I am guessing it is totally impossible to ever gain it all back as the pouch would never stretch that much. I know you can gain a significant amount but just curious on peoples thoughts.<p>For me I don't see a problem of gaining a lot, but realize I might gain some over time, but hope to keep it in check by using the tool given to me. Based on previous massive weight loss experience I know I will love being able to move and do things and will enjoy exercise, so I believe that will help me to work through any gaining problems. I believe, having the tool, would have saved me before of gaining it back if it literally would have been impossible for me to eat massive amounts of food once my depression surfaced. I had no prior warning, that I saw, of the depression coming and it played havoc on my weight loss, but now I'm in a good place to move forward with this long-term committment to a healthier life and the tool to help me get there. I'm excited about having the energy I used to have just a few years ago. I'm only 41 and have many years ahead of me.
