Starting Pouch Reset - Accountability Partners?

Hello everyone,

I am 3 years post and have recently gained weight. I am hoping to press the reset button by going back to basics for an 8-10 day pouch reset starting on Monday, December 19th. Anyone want to join in?

    If you have a sleeve not a pouch, don't do that liquid pouch reset, it is useless. Eat 3-4 ounces of dense Protein only for a few days, so you can feel and utilize your restriction. RNY people nee

Anyone resetting as a New Years resolution?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am starting today! It's sad to me that I still have to have the same resolution I have had every year for the last 20 years. But I am grateful to have a way to reset this tool to help me. I feel hopeful because I'm not on my own. I went to the grocery store last night and got everything I need and eliminated everything I don't. Good luck to us all!!!

How is everyone doing with your reset?? Boy it's hard isn't it? I'm dying for carbs!

I do feel better already though. I was eating just terrible throughout the holiday season and was feeling really gross. So I'm excited and hopeful to get back on track and lose this regain.

I recently reset (2weeks ago) and I'm amazed!! I feel newly sleeved. All my restriction is back and no more cravings!! It's soooo worth it!!

Thanks so much for posting that. I've been doing the reset and it's so hard. But I feel the restriction too so I know it's worth it. :)

Thanks for the encouragement!

The reset, to me at least,was more of a detox. Sometimes we stray and eat things we shouldn't and feel less restriction and/or more hungry. The reset detoxes the sugar out of your system and gives your tummy a break, sort of letting you feel that really fill feeling we all had in the very beginning

RNY people need the pouch reset because their pouches stretch. Sleeves don't stretch, people eat sliders and claim to have lost restriction when in reality it is entirely based on their diet.
