Welcome to the forums.

I don't really know if it's actually possible to 'reset' a pouch. I'm sure people will swear that it helped them and I doubt we'll hear from those that it didn't because their no longer about.

But, BariatricPal has a program, so it must work, right?

Good luck, mostly just wanted to welcome you and remind everyone of the old axiom "Buyer beware"

Thanks a lot for the quick response. I actually have an appt. with my doctor next week regarding the reset. It can be done over a period of 2 weeks with Protein Shakes only he said or surgically. I will repost the outcome when i am done.

If I were going to do it, this is the way I would do it. Doc knows you and your surgery. If anyone can make it work, it's the Doc.

Way to go!

I did it, after the covid 19 pandemic started I lost track of everything and gained 20lbs, clothes didn’t fit I was starting to go back to my old ways, so I decided to get back in track cut all the carbs started weighting my food and substituted dinner for Protein Shakes started doing exercise and after two month I lost 25 pounds and I get full with 5 oz of food

talk to your Doctor see what works for you

Sleeve and pouch are used interchangeably.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
