I think this thing depends on what numbers you put in. If I say that I want to lose 80%, I am right on track, but if I say 100% my goal is correct, but I am slow to lose. Doc's goal is 160 or less 80% It says goal 182 I should now be less than 235 100% It says goal 156 I should now be less than 222 I am currently 230 The most important thing to remember is that this isn't taking body and metobolic factors into account. Don't put too much stock into the number, look at it more as a guide, than a bible. Robin 315/230/160

Everyone feels this way. Don't worry, just keep working hard, and don't eat more than your pouch can take, and you will be fine

trust me...lol...i understand your worries. I have had the thoughts that I may have stretched my pouch several times too...dame tooter is so wonderful though....she always brings me back to reality. I mean honestly...think about 3-4 bites....especially after its chewed. See? It will be okay. Just follow all your dr's rules.....he knows what's best. I think dame tooter has this article that says something along the lines of most of the time you don't ever really stretch your pouch....that should something stretch, it will more than not, be the stoma, which would mean that the food would leave the pouch quicker than before, which may result in eating a little more, or eating more often due to hunger. Now...lol...don't quote me...but I believe that is what it says. Congratulations on the weight loss.....you are doing wonderful! Take care. Lori.
