With so many things I have to deal post op RNY- I  personally don't recommend that. 

I keep my weight off because this is the only good thing o have going post op RNY. And I am not going to gain my weight back. 

I think missing pyloric valve is really bad things. 

I was lucky, because my doc reinforcers the stoma, trying to prevent stretch.. 

Thing with restrictions- is that if I eat carbs - I can eat and eat and eat...even when paired with dense protein.  I think insulin makes my pouch less sensitive to full/ hungry signals. 

But eating low carbs, higher fat for 2 - 4 days (white knockle deal with cravings) makes me more sensitive to the qty of food. 

Artificial sweeteners- makes me hungry...really hungry.. 

Too much acid - and you think I have not eaten in 2 days..thanks how hungry I get.  Pain pills - any pain pills...also lower the pouch sensitivity to full/hungry... 

Not enough water- same thing.

Add the fact that I need to be on steroids...and that is a complete new story.. New dept of hunger. 

If I were you- I would try really strict keto diet, really really low carbs (total - don't foul yourself with net) ,  limiting calories to 1500 per day initially, then once you hunger is controlled, to 1000-1200. With no more than 20-40 gr carbs., no more than 70-80 gr of proteins, rest from good fats like bacon, avocado, olives, butter.etc. ad natural - minimally processed foods. 

I.e. pork rinds are my to go snack. If I want fancy - I get exts guacamole... 

Wishing you best.

My revision to DS cost $9000 at the Mexicali Bariatric Center. Same place I had the sleeve 4 years ago. I'd recommend them to anyone. I have yet to see one negative review or outcome - I spend months, days and hours doing web research before making these kind of decisions.
