Question:
2 months post op revision and not losing

i had a ryn may 9th 2002 and had a stapleline disruption after 4 months only losing 32 lbs and had a revision on feb.13th 2003 and have lost 25 lbs but lost that in 2 weeks and have not lost any more since. what can be wrong now all i keep hearing is your losing inches but i would also like to see the scale move.    — chrissy T.

What is your post-op regimen like? Meal size, frequency, protein supps, vites, water.....?

You stated you had a revision due to staleline disruption; so I will ASSUME ALL the surgeon did was 'fix' your stapleline' ie fix that/or transect you.. BUT just fix your tummy. IF that was the case; ALL he did was fix your pouch. YOU will not have any rapid weight loss from that; except the loss you would have from 'eating' less... The "malaborption' part of your RNY is coming close to an end since your a year out... THAT wouldnt have changed because you fixed your pouch. So I would say 25 in 2 weeks would be considered great; for basically 'dieting'. Also; 25 in 2 weeks is a lot 1 year post! your body could be resting.....
