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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
