dfwtxfemme 3 Posted October 15, 2012 I like the idea of never being able to absorb calories, I am also aware of the dumping effects and not being able to take certain medications and always taking vitamins.... but if money was not a factor which would you really have done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertmom 297 Posted October 15, 2012 Say what?of course you will be able to absorb calories. Just go on the revision GB forum on OH to see that the malabsorption stops and the dumping also do for a lot. Every surgery,except maybe the DS,have to be "worked" for it to work meaning changing habits and what you eat. Money isnt a problem and I wouldnt ever do the GP.My best friend has now regained 25 pounds at 2 years out,doesnt dump anymore,still looks grey and is very,very tired all the time.She also eats carbs like there is no tomorrow and when I asked her in an email just yesterday how the Proteins are going,she replied that she now eats lots of nuts...not the way to go!She is in that bad place of denying that she is doing something that obviously is not working. Think again! Only skinny habits will keep us skinny! 1 MeMeMEEE reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
