Starting Pouch Reset - Accountability Partners?



Recommended Posts

On a Happy note, I went about 6 hours without eating yesterday - busy with Christmas shopping. And whenI did eat, I felt the restriction again! I was so glad to feel it again and to know I have the power to get it back!

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.

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

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 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.

I love this!! I needed to read this today! I haven't been on here in a while!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
