Upper GI says my pouch is still small.
Why boo? I would think you'd be happy to hear you don't need another surgery and that your pouch is still in good shape.

The pouch may be small, but how about the stoma? If that stretchs, food just moves to the intestines too quickly, leaving you hungry too soon.
Also, the malabsorbtion of calories isn't supposed to last more than a year or two with RNY, so it may just be you are now absorbing all calories. I know this isn't what you want to hear, but have you tried logging everything you eat for a week or so?
