donnamaria65 16 Posted January 28, 2015 Thank you so much for that information, doctors always have different information than other doctors. I know my surgery is still new (13 mths) but I thought you could stretch your pouch after a year per on of the doc's at the group I go to. I do however need to slow down my in chewing time lol, I'm still not good at that. When I got my surgery my husband said that I should have a goal weight, but I didn't set one because I just wanted to get below 200 lbs. I know goals are important but I never wanted one, maybe because I didn't want the pressure or to fail. But now that my weigh is stable, I want to lose 15 more lbs. I'm 5'6 and 153 lbs and I'd like to be maybe 135-140. My friends already think I'm skinny and I don't see it the way they see me. Maybe I should just focus on staying healthy yes?
