I too had gastric surgery in 02. I went from 345 to 190 in a year and a half. I maintained that weight for a few years, then I had to have a hystorectomy and I just started to gain it back. Now I'm back up to 265lbs and living a lie cause I'm too embaressed to tell ppl at my new job that I had weight loss surgery when I look like I need to undergo surgery.

I have dieted to get the weight off sucessfully but when I stop I gain back what I lost plus 10 lbs. The same ole same ole just like before the surgery. I went back to my doc. after 9 years I have gained 35 and feel like a blimp told him I want the sleeve or band to help now I am waiting and waiting. The doc's pa seriously prayed for me in the office. I know I can never eat anything with sugar and have to exercise and stop the snacking but it is not realistic for me. So unless you are forever committed to forever dieting nothing works. Opra said when there is a program that really works, she will be the first one to get it and so far there is nothing except watching what and how much you put in your mouth.

I am like so many of you on here! I hate to sound redundant but I have had nothing but failure to this surgery! I had an RNY in May of 2004 starting out at 382. I got down to 272 after a year. The weight stopped coming off and by year 2 I was gaining again. At first it was gradual and before I knew it, I was carrying an extra 40 pounds again! Now I am over 300 pounds again and I never tell anyone that I had the surgery because I look like a candidate for another one. I exercise, fast, take my protein, my vitamins (which make me eat like a mad woman)I do everything that I am supposed to do but no success. Now I find this page. I hope this is a sign that I am on the right track in seeking a revision. Best of luck to everyone here! I knew I wasn’t crazy!!! I am like so many of you on here!

Go to weight loss triumph and search reactive hypoglycemia and gastric bypass- read the blog- there are 2-3 in there that have had to stop working. I had to switch jobs and it is a struggle everyday to keep this one- I have reactive hypo so bad it has affected my mind.
