What are the long term results for over 10 yrs post op?

Hey ya'll. I just watched the Jenny Jones show. It was the one with the woman that had Roux-n-y surgery. I was really surprised to when the doctor said that he didn't know of any patient that had kept the weight off more then 10 to 15 years. Now out of everyone that has made this life change you would think at least one would have kept the wieght off. This really concerns me because its my biggest fear, that I'll loss all the weight then end up gaining it back again. Was what the doctor said true in your all's opinion and experience? what about the other surgeries (lap band, pouch, DS). Really worried so anything you can let me know would be great. Thanks and best wishs to you all.
