WEIGHT GAIN WORRIES AFTER SURGERY

I WILL BE A SELF PAID PATIENT, WHICH HAS ME GOING TO MEXICO FOR MY WLS. I WAS SET ON THE RNY UNTIL MY REGULAR PHYSICIAN SUGGESTED I CHECK INTO THE DS, SO NOW I AM TOTALLY CONFUSED. I HAVE OVER 100LBS TO LOOSE AND I AM TERRIFIED OF HAVING THE SURGERY AND RE-GAINING THE WEIGHT. I AM DEDICATED TO THE LIFE STYLE CHANGE, BUT IF WE ARE HONEST WITH OUR SELF....WE WOULD NOT BE IN THE SITITUATION TO NEED WLS IF WE WERE ABLE TO STAY ON A DIET. MY QUESTIONS IS....HOW CAN PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE RNY DONE STRETCH THEIR POUCH ENOUGH TO GAIN THE WEIGHT BACK? AND WHY IS IT THE DS PEOPLE'S STOMACH DOESN'T STRECH TO ALSO GAIN THE WEIGHT BACK?
