A stretched pouch can go back...

But it does take starting over... a few days on liquids, a few days soft, and then back to full diet.

No carbonation, watch the starches...

And it might help to use the gasX to keep the gas from helping stretch.

It'll take a couple of weeks, but it'll work.

I don't know. That was what I was wondering myself. I know that my stomach is bothering me today.

@ stevegoad - that sounds do-able. My stomach is really bothering me today. Not sure if I ate to much yesterday or if something just irrated it. No bueno! :o

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
