Question:
Can you tell the size of your pouch?

I am just over 2 years post op and was wondering if there was a way to measure your pouch without using cottage cheese. I did the cottage cheese test and threw it up after just a few spoonfuls. I can't tolerate it. Any other suggestions??    — Carol1967 (posted on March 18, 2002)

Paula, I am glad you asked this question, I am almost 2 years post-op also and wanted to know the same thing. I can't answer it for you but I will keep checking here to see the answer.

Pudding? Ricotta Cheese? See if you can find something with the same consistency that won't bother you. (I hate cottage cheese...) Good luck and God Bless!

How about fairly stiff oatmeal? I think pudding would go through too fast.
