I'm 4 days short of one year out. I had a premier protein today and started my day off great. Then I had 3 Halloween Oh Henry, one right after the other very quickly. Well... I got into my office and my stomach started to churn. I felt like I had to vomit and I couldn't even walk straight because my intestines were twisted. I felt like I would poop my pants. Anyway, I had to leave work and right when I got home... well I had diarrhea...like 3 times. So I think I dumped. Never again. I will stick to the premier.

It can be hard this time of year when all the Halloween candy is around and you think oh just one or 2 little ones, I haven't experienced dumping with the odd sweet I've had, but just try not to keep in the house, and if my DH wants snacks/chocolate I get him to buy the ones I don't like, the advantage of being picky.

Unfortunately it's hard to know what will cause dumping or how it will manifest in yourself, I had a bad experience a month ago with my morning smoothie, haven't been able to convince myself to go back to that yet, although when talking to the dietitian she said maybe I'd had too much fruit as it was the end of the bag so I didn't measure.

Good luck and now you know no chocolate for breakfast

Sounds like you did. No more O Henry's.

I dumped for the first time a few weeks ago. Not fun. It only has to happen once and you know what you need to stay away from.

I had a quinoa salad with raisins and apples. I guess just a bit too much sugar in that equation and it was game on. Nope...gonna stay on the right path after that.
