Pouch volume Vs Sleeve which one has more restriction?



Recommended Posts

I’ve been wondering this for a while but still no idea which one is more restrictive.

I think a bypass is a bit more restrictive but I don't know for sure.

Finally found something on this.. The sleeve pouch is (3-4 ounces) compared to the gastric bypass pouch (1 ounce) and LAP-BAND[emoji768] pouch (1/2 ounce).

Found this on oliakcenter.com

i had the RNY 12/18/17. It's not as bad as it sounds. I"m almost 5 months out and I'm doing pretty good. I can eat foods without issue and can definitely eat more that 1 oz. That may be the case right after surgery but it gets better over time as it heals.

It is, our Kangaroo pouch,is the size of an duck egg, you bananarama sleevers have maybe a nice banana size. And since we have no longer a helpful valve at the end of our food processor, it's rapid transit down the intestine. That's why it's super important we don't eat with our meals, things become a total washout😛...........💕Frust8 the happy,future Kangaroo

      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! 😞
