Weight gain scare?

I had open RYN in Sept. 2001 I'a 5 years post op and have gain back 40lbs. I can not seem to lose the weight. I have been gaining and losing the same 5 pounds for months now. I went to my surgeon he did and endo scope, which reveiled the pouch was still intact and had not changed size much. the stoma was strecthed some, however he will not consider doing a revision to make the stome smaller. I'm scared. I can eat more than at times. Sometimes until I'm miserable. I know that sounds bad. I want to have control and eat less than 1000 calories aday. I'm a stress eatter, and have many stressfull issues in my life. I want to lose the weight. I know the rules eat less exercise more. I need some words of encouragement. I'm so depressed I thought I would never weigh this muchagain.Rain W.
