Weight loss will not stop after mini gastric bypass surgery

by Hadi Radwan
(Beirut - Lebanon)

I am a 45 years old male, 180 cm tall. I did the mini gastric bypass on 17/3/2010 - I was 126 kgs. To date I have lost around 55 kgs (Now I'm 71 kgs). My blood tests are normal.

I'm trying so hard not to lose weight anymore, but it seems that I'm still losing around 1 kg per month.

I need to know if my weight loss will stop - is it normal to lose all this weight??

I'm eating normally and I can eat almost all kinds of food, but I'm not regaining any weight at all.

Should I consider a reverse of the operation?

Thank you,

Hadi

Have you checked in with your doctor?

Hello, Hadi. First of all, because I'm a silly American, I had to convert all your metrics to something I could understand. Hahaha!

So, by my conversion, you are 5' 10" and went from about 278 pounds to about 156 -- and you're still losing about 2.2 pounds a month.

Depending on your body type, you may be too thin, or you may be just right. Not knowing you or being able to see you, it's hard to determine where you fall.

I would suggest, however, that if you're concerned about it and feeling that you're TOO thin, you consult your physician and have him help you determine if you should do any type of surgery to correct this, if it doesn't stop.

Good luck to you.
