I'm gaining weight and I believe that I've stretched my pouch.

I'm almost 3 years post-op from an open RNY. I had severe complications and was hospitalized for over 4 months. I started out at 315 to 320 pounds and lost down to 205. I'm now gaining weight. I have disability problems and I'm confined to my home. This has been a physical and emotional struggle for me. I'm desperate to lose all the weight that I thought would I would. I fear that I've stretched the pouch because I can hold quite a bit of food, not like before, but more than I should. I also have never had experienced the "dumping syndrome." Therefore, I can tolerate sugar...Ugh!!! Please advise! Thanks so much!
