Question:
What are the pros and cons of this surgery?

I'm researching different wls and the Fobi Pouch looks like on of the better ones. I would appreciate any info on this type of wls...BMI 49    — [Anonymous] (posted on July 26, 2000)

I'm not really qualified to answer your question, but there are a couple of Fobi pouch on-line support groups you may want to join to get first hand information. Here's the URL's: http://www.egroups.com/group/Fobi-Support and http://www.egroups.com/group/fobi-freinds4life. Good Luck to you!!

I have done a lot of research and I am having the fobi pouch. Basically your stomach is cut into two sections. The doctor creates a pouch that will hold about 1 oz of food. It is totally separated from the larger portion of the stomach. You never have to worry about the surgery reversing. Good luck in your research and God bless...
