I'm no expert and haven't had revision yet but that seems like a great loss in less than a month. I have heard that revision loss is slower than virgin surgery.

I had a distal bypass revision on 7/6/16. I gained 18 lbs of fluid in hospital and have lost an additional 22 lbs. I'm 2 months out and have malabsorption, so I think you're doing great.  Revisions do lose slower.

Hey Charmaine, 

Your doing great!  Revision is slower i know.  I had surgery revision from band to sleeve May24, 2016 im 3 1/2 month out and have lost 26 lbs.  I was in a stall for 4 weeks of that  it just started to move down again when my nutritionist said to change my diet a little bit.  It seems that i was eating too much protein.  go figure ..

but during the 4 week stall i just kept doing what i was doing (following plan) and i was LOSING INCHES.  so i m very content with that.  now the scale has to catch up..

 

Speak to your nutritionist and go over what you are eating and drinking and see what she/he says.  

 

good luck .

Hi. I was wondering if you had to have a 2nd psych exam for revision?
