Update about my almost 4yrs RNY journey

Hi everyone!

It's been quite a while since I participated in the group. I had WLS (RNY) back in. 04/02/2012, had a baby in 09/02/2014.

Initial WT 260

Reached WT 135

Current WT 185

I been feeling a little discourage because of this this plateau that I had hit and seem not to be able to get control of my WT again. I feel that I stretch my pouch but that hopefully is not too late to restored. So I been considering to do the 5 days pouch test but I want to learn about some of you guys that had already done it.

- Do you really restore your pouch to normalcy?

- How much wt you can lose during this 5 days? If any!

TIA!

Hi, I don't know but definitely try my fitness pal to log your foods. Good luck and congrats on your baby. BTW losing 50 pounds is definitely doable.

Welcome back! I just wanted to mention the 5 day pouch test is really not so much about how much weight you lose in those 5 days but more about getting back on track. It helps you to reset to when you had surgery.

I know that if I ever regain and I anticipate it, I would do the pouch test just to get back on track.

The best of luck to you! I know you can do this because you once reached your goals. You can remove the bad habits that allowed you to regain. You already know what you need to do.
