All of the surgeons I've contacted do revisions. I can't imagine a reason why a surgeon wouldn't, but who knows. That being said, if her pouch is OK and it's a problem with her anastomosis, there is a procedure that can be done with a scope to sclerose, or scar her opening to make it smaller again. Way easier than a second surgery if it's possible. Good luck to her.

Goal! I did it!

I finally have a "normal" BMI
Reached my first goal of 145...and setting a new one of 135.
Reached 135 and have decided to lose another five if I can.
Reached my new goal of 130...and I think I want to stop losing now. "Stop losing now".Wow, I never thought I'd ever say that!
