I think revision is great if there's really a need for it. When I started regaining my lost weight, I checked into this. Unfortunately, there seemed to be any number of surgeons ready and willing to do a stomaphyx for me, whether I needed it…
I was 262 and now I am about 153. I lowest was 145 and I too look so sick. My eyeballs looked like they fell into my face and everyone kept asking me if I was sick. My mother was so worried about me, thinking that I was not eating, so I decided to gain a little bit and I am happy at 153. My face looks healthy and I feel good. I try my very best to take it one day at a time and to make a healthy choice about what goes into my mouth. I always keep in mind what my MD said, protein 1st then a healthy carb, so that is what I do. Still I am terrified of gaining weight, I weight myself 3-4 times a week and pray to God to help me in this journey. So far I am doing well, have not gained any weight and I look and feel great. I also try to try to remind myself how I felt when I was so fat but the weird thing is that I feel like that was in another life time. Hope that everyone is doing well.
