Just wondering.....

Why do some people dump while others don't? I don't but I do feel a little sick to my stomach if I eat things to high in sugar or fat.

I get sick-ish if I eat too many carbs [yes, I've made that mistake with crackers] - very tired and have to lay down. I wonder that too. Since we've had the same surgery, why dont we all react the same??

I know! I find it interesting. I have some food intolerances like I can't eat any breads, wraps etc yet at 4 months out. Hope one day I can eat half a whole wheat English muffin!

It's all about our bodies and how they process sugar. We are all different before surgery too. Think of eating baked goods when you've heard people remark "ah that tastes too sweet for me" or "crystal lite tastes too sweet". etc. Our bodies all deal with food differently. If our bodies are really good at processing sugar, then we may not dump. Ironically, although I rarely dumped (handful of times), my body can no longer tolerate sugars well with the Reactive Hypoglycemia...so you never quite know what you're going to get. LOL

Good point Dawn. I always enjoy reading what you post. You are very informative and at the same time extremely level headed Do you know if I will ever be able to have that English muffin lol

 Maybe a few people can't tolerate them esp early out but most of us can enjoy an English muffin.  An egg and slice of cheese on a half English muffin is still my fave breakfast on weekdays

 Thanks for the kind words.  Much appreciated!
