Should I revise to a distal??

I am 9 months post-op from an open proximal rny. For nearly two months now I haven't lost any weight, my total weight loss is only 70lbs. Starting weight was 258lbs, at 5'1" I'm still technically obese. I'd like to lose down to around 130-140 but am afraid that this won't be possible with my proximal. Do you think I should consider a revision to a distal? Could I hear from anyone who's had a revision from a prox to a distal and if so how long did they wait in between? Thanks so much......
