This test is to measure the size of your pouch. What you do is get some cottage cheese and eat it an ounce at a time and eat until you feel full. Then you will know how big your pouch is. I don't think many people actually do this. I asked my surgeon how big he made my pouch and I measure my food accordingly. No danger in stretching it that way.
