Question for anyone having had a Micro-Pouch surgery.

I had surgery on May 9th. I have lost 50lbs, most o fwhich were lost while on an IV in the hospital a month ago because of complications. For the first two months I could barley eat a couple of bites, now I can eat quite a bit. I have gained back four lbs! Has anyone who has had this surgery gained back their weight? I was told that this surgery has NEVER had to be revised and that it CAN'T stretch. Is anyone dissapointed in their weight loss so far. I realize I have lost a lot more than I would have with a diet, but I NEVER thought or heard of the weight coming back. HELP!!! By the way, I do watch my diet. I eat as little sugar as possible, we all know it's practically impossible to get ALL sugars out, and I eat alot of salad and veggies. My main diet problem is bread. I can't seem to kick it completely, although I do eat way less than 80% of what I used to.
