I had VSG on 9/30/15. My weight loss started off very well. I lost 24lbs in the first week & a half post op. After that, the weight loss came to a crawl, then eventually to a complete stop. When I moved back to my home state I started back with the basics, including increasing exercises & meal prep. No luck with weight loss. I developed severe GERD as well. I consulted with my PCP about my weight loss journey & he gave me a script for Phentermine as well as a script for Omeprozole. I lost 12lbs in 2 weeks but the pills started making me sick so he took me off them. The weight came back when I stopped taking the pills, putting me at 223lbs. I found a surgeon here that would do a revision to gastric bypass, so I started my 6 month nut visits, which was required by my insurance company. The bariatric coordinator submitted my paperwork to the insurance company 2 weeks ago & I got the call today that I was approved for my revision surgery. I'm excited & scared at the same time! I have about 60-70 lbs to lose but I'm afraid the revision won't work. ????
