Thank you for allowing me to join this group. I had gastric bypass in 2013. After numerous problems, including getting my gall bladder out, repairing a section of the surgery, appendicitis and having dumping syndrome, I got down to 142 lbs, I could barely stand, I was so weak. I finally leveled out at 165 lbs. and I was happy with that. I had this surgery for diabetes, fatty liver that was progressing and sleep apnea, just to name a few things. I no longer needed diabetic meds, statins, and the CPAP but slowly I gained 15 lbs. None of my pants fit me, my stomach is huge! I ended up back on the CPAP but not the drugs. I had tried everything to lose this stomach. It looks like I swallowed a basketball. I lost 12 of those 15 lbs and I still look the same. So uncomfortable. I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this.
