I've been horrible on my diet since June.. Sweets, carbs .. You name it.. My ouch had hated me and yet I don't learn. I gained 3 pounds and have tried to find a support group in Pittsburgh area. My question is, should I be talking to my doctor about pouch stretching or testing to are if it's happened? I can eat more now that I'm 10 months out.. I had 3 pieces of small pizza (home made) and a half hour later had a sugar- free cupcake.. So I'm failing somewhere.. I'm worried my pouch is damaged or possible gone. Should I contact my surgeon?

You can try the 5 day pouch test. If you Google it, it will pop up.

Meanwhile, you can try going back to basics and also logging your daily food intake. A call to your Nut. would help, as well.

You need to find out why you are doing this.. All of the above are great suggestions but until you get a hold of why your mind is doing this you will continue to Sabotage yourself!! Good luck

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
