isn't really a problem with the Roux en Y as much as it is with the biliopancreatic diversion w/duodenal switch.

Having said that, the restrictive portion will keep you feeling full.

As someone who has had the BPD/DS I don't experience dumping syndrome but I do have lots of issues around malnutrition because of a short common channel. That's where the nutrients are absorbed.

Anyway, try vitalady.com , Michelle is very well versed in vitamins and proteins and may be able to steer you in the right direction re getting your protein in.
