What's wrong with my pouch? I can eat anything and lots of it!

I am one month out from a RNY and find that I can eat anything except sweets and I can eat plenty of it!!! I am talking about a Happy Meal at Christmas (yes I know I should not have had it) without any problem - I had to wait about half an h our between the fries and the burger but I didn't get full till I finished the burger. Is this the way the pouch works? I thought I'd only be able to eat a tiny bit and be full!! I wonder if my pouch is too big. I know that I'm eating a diet heavy on carbs and having a lot of trouble with 'head hunger', so as of today I'm eating a lot more protein and counting calories. I sure would appreciate any advice. Do others have this happen to them? I have only lost 20 pounds and today the scale says I gained a pound!!
