I am looking into GBS and was wondering what the recovery timeframe was. Is it 2 weeks like with other robot surgeries? Is it longer because of the fatigue associated with the rapid weight loss? What has been your experience? I have to do 12 months of MD supervised diet and exercise before surgery and just started so I won't be having surgery for at least a year. I'm just curious how much time off I should build up.
Thanks so much for the input!

Have you been able to get a group formed.
I am in the same boat.
I would love to team up as well if you wouldn't mind.
I am almost 5 years out and today is he first day back on here in almost 4 years.
Hi, I have two that I like:
pure protien- 23 grams protien, 1 gram sugar- 120 calories
and
Atkins -15 grams protien-1 gram sugar - 160 calories
those are the only ones I have found that I like.
I cant do the powders are all. They upset my belly.
My doctor never said I needed anything. I think I will take your advice. Thanks for helping me.

Most of the time hunger is really stomach acid that mimics hunger. If you're not taking a PPI already (such as Prilosec or Nexium) start taking one. If you are taking one already, talk to your doctor about getting a stronger one or increasing your dosage.
Just because you can eat anything doesn't mean you should. And just because you feel okay not chewing as much as you were told doesn't mean you should skimp on the chewing either.

Check with your doctor, but maybe a sip of pickle juice would help.

Most nutritious, low carb little or no sugar best tasting protein shake, ready made. Which one is your favorite?
I know me too! I am hungry all the time.I can eat anything and have no problem drinking fliuds. The only good thing is I cannot eat as much thank goodness. I don't need to chew as much as it is suggested either…I hope this works out for us. I am down 27 pounds. I had my surgery on April 28 this year. Hang in there…its gotta get better. Someone said something about too much acid n the stomach. Good Luck!
