Hi. @mcordeiro - that would be so disappointing to have weight loss surgery, lose 175 pounds and have 60 come back. I've not had a weight loss surgery, but I've experienced yo-yoing with my weight, and it's very discouraging.

Your exercise and eating habits sound commendable.

Hoping members in this discussion to which I merged yours like @grandmar and @missstephyl will have input for you on gaining weight after a weight loss surgery and whether you might consider revision surgery. I'd also love for you to meet @roch, if you've not already encountered each other.

mcordeiro, what aspect or aspects of regaining weight after weight loss surgery have been the most challenging for you?

It's been about 10 years since I was sleeved. I lost 90 lbs. I gained approximately 7 lbs. I ate well and exercised on and off. I had several health issues along the way. I was able to not gain more than the 7 lbs. That was until 2022 when my husband died. I was only able to eat comfort foods and keep it down. Over time, I gained about 20 lbs. I couldn't get it off. Nothing worked! I finally decided to do the shots. Even with it it took time to take that weight off. I am now almost 10 lbs. below my lowest weight. That makes a total of 100 lbs. lost. I am looking to lose another 5 to 10.
