How frustrating to be stalled for so long?! It's been a year without the scale moving. I have to lose 15 pounds in 10 days. A little back story, I went to see a plastic surgeon to have a panniculectomy done and my insurance denied me. The surgeons office appealed the denial, insurance came back and said I have to send in proof that my BMI is 30 or below. Well I'm still overweight by 15 pounds. I would like to do a pouch reset but has anyone reset their pouch 5 years later and have been successful? Also were you able to workout with no solid food just liquids? Any advice is appreciated. Thank you so much!!

15 pounds in 10 days? You can try the liquid diet like preop... low carb and low fat, but that is asking an awful lot.

Good luck!

pouch reset is a fad diet. I think the best approach would be to only eat dense Protein and non-starchy vegetables; no cheating. And no sugar, artificial sweeteners, or processed food either.

Thank you so much. I'm going to try to go back to the basicsof for 10 days, then weigh in hoping to lose the 15 pounds in 10 days afterwards back to protein and veggies

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
