Hi, I'm interested in learning more about this topic. Had my surgery in 2009. If any one in this group is willing to talk about this with me, can you reach out and let me know? My e-mail is health4life65@gmail.com. Thanks. Tiza P.

    Been there and working in getting the regain off as we speak. Will send you an email... but gained 35 lbs of the 88 I lost back. A lot was due to circumstances and I had to move back to NY temporarily last year — about a month, plus tons of work stress and my eating habits went back to what they were for the most part. Happy to connect further.

    Same here. Had RNY gastric bypass surgery 8 years ago. I regained 50 of the 120 lbs I lost. Finally realized that I cannot eat foods other than lean proteins and veggies. My calorie intake needs to stay around 1000. I did not know (presurgery) just how restrictive my food choices would be. That being said, RNY surgery was still a good choice for me. Just a lot of mental adjustments - still working on that part!
