Is it documented ANYWHERE, what size a pouch is standardly made with an Open RNY?

I am gaining weight like crazy. Having to attend Weight Watchers. Since May 2003 to present I have gained 50 pounds and had to buy bigger clothes. Not what I imagined going through having been had Gastric Bypass RNY Open and a tummy tuck. My surgeon that I see for my annual follow up appointments said that my surgeon did not make my new small pouch as small as it should have been made initially and that he left a loop with my intestines that should not have been done. And that my chances of keeping my weight off are slim to none. I'd like to know if it is documented what the standard size should be immediately following surgery so I can compare it to my doctors post-op notes of my procedure in hopes of getting a revision covered. PLEASE HELP, I AM DESPERATE!!
