Hi. Have I stretched out my pouch? I am trying to do better but I know I need to go to the gym. I got off work late so I don't go. I have been tempted to eat the wrong things I wished I never went back to solid foods. My stomach hurting just with the soft stuff was good enough so I would not gain. I think I need to go right from work. I want to lose so much. My diabetes is gone and I am down from 56" to 50" which is good.

I just had surgery March 5. I just turned 45 and was 373 at surgery. I went down to 327 but got into bad habits and now 340. I am so disappointed in myself. The only thing good is that I'm at waist 50" from 56" and my diabetes is gone. I think I stretched my pouch. I seem to be able to eat more without even dumping. I am not sure what to do. Plus my gas is horrendous.

Anyone from central MD

I admit I had a few things I should not have ate. Its still a mind game when it comes to eating. My thing is I have to get off my lazy butt and exercise. I went from a 58" waist to 52" post op RNY 3/5/13 372 now 329 but I did go up a few weeks ago to 340. My lowest weight was 327. I am happy that I can get on a normal persons scale at the doctors now. I thought I was the only one who had a stall or gain.

I now too have smelly gas. Much worse as if something crawled up my butt and died. As soon as I relax in bed at night off I go alot. The probiotic does not help. I saw my doctor last week and he mentioned devrom at devrom.com so I am ordering it to try it out. It's either that or wear a dryer sheet in my underwear to filter out the smell.

I would only take a sip if I had gas stuck to help burp but anymore it hurts. I too love Coke Zero

There is no normal per se. I had my surgery on March 5, 2013 and was 372 now at 329. I got scared because I went up to 340 a few weeks ago. I got to stick to my regimen plus go back to the gym. I'll admit I ate some bad things due to stress and boredom.
