Guest guest Posted May 25, 2001 Report Share Posted May 25, 2001 Hello all ~ I haven't posted for a long time.. but I'm hoping someone out there can help my mom. I am post-op 16 years and my mother also had the surgury before me. She's had a serious issue come up and I told her if she wrote the message I'd forward it to this list. If someone can give her advice, it would be very much appreciated. Please email her directly at: thamiter@... Thanks!! Kim ******************************************* I'm looking for advice and folks to help answer questions. I had a Vertical Banded Gastroplasty in 1985, did great, went from 400# to 110 #, then settled in comfortable at 140#. I had a really bad stress period this last year, had excessive violent vomiting and blew out my staple line about 6 weeks ago. Now gaining weight, increasing hunger, big time sugar addiction. My doc is suggesting Gastric Bypass with Transected Stomach. I'd like to talk with others that have been successful and those that have not. I'm terrified of gaining my weight back. Also concerned with my sugar addiction. Anyone out there willing to chat, support and throw me ideas would be appreciated. Thanks, Tana thamiter@... Namaste ....
