Welcome to Connect, this group has people considering surgery and others who have had surgery. My RNY was 10+ years ago. I am still glad I did and I also fluctuate but been very stable last few years.
Like you, my Ferritin has it's up and downs and have had iron infusions , last one was two years ago and I have my yearly recheck next month. I just started doing pilates at a pilates club. It is an effort, but can tell it is building up muscles in core. I have 3 month membership at new club that open in Rochester, at end of 3 months I will decide if decide to try doing at home instead.
I do a yearly recheck up with Mayo endocrinology dept which does blood and urine test and a group zoom call. It does more blood work them my PCP usually orders.
What do you find your biggest challenge in keeping weight off?

Pilates was essential in my post op recovery. I was in a lot of pain even several months out. Pilates helped so much!
My body doesn’t seem to confirm to a single pattern or consistency or diet or strategy, so I just never know what to do or try. I have not been able to access additional plastics after the panni and am left looking remarkably odd. This body is hard to use but I have resolved that Im stuck as I am now for the most part. Just trying to be the best whatever I am from here on out.
