Dumping

Hey, I've heard people talking about dumping but I do not know what this is. Could someone explain it to me. I have not meet with a nutritionist yet. Do all people get this? And why? Thanks, Charlotte

Hi Charlotte, in my humble opinion, dumping is eating something that makes u sick, very sick. At first sugars didn't make me sick but now they do. I'll be 2 yrs out in March. If I goof up and eat a cookie then I'm sick. My heart races, I get hot flashes, my stomach hurts, cramps, I feel like I'm going to puke, I feel like if I could puke I'd feel better. I've also become lactose intolerate after surgery. Milk makes me hurt bad. I love cereal with skim milk & splenda but can't have it cause it hurts me. Its all worth it though to lose weight. I can give up sugars and milk if it means for the first time in my life I'm thin, well 155 isn't thin but its a heck of a lot smaller than 324. Take care and I hope this helps some. I've never actually puked from eating sugars but I hear of some that do. When I do this I wish I could puke, I feel so sick it just feels like if I could puke I'd feel better. I wish u the best. I don't think everyone dumps, I didn't at first myself, but things change and I do now.

I will agree with that but its not just sugars it can be fat can alot of thing I am lucky 2 years out I still dump.... Bad part is with me it is not consistant. Today i might dump on something tomorrow I wont. Also though I have never Threw up In which I dang near inpossible for us RNY folks I have had it come out further south...TMI I am sure.. I think the why is a mystery personally I think it a way that our body is telling us it is trying to proccess what we ate and is our little electric fence to let us realize we arent the same...I have known people a month out of surgery that have not dumped they also find out a year later they eat something and they get sick.... I have dumped On fruits too so its also Natural sugars. and I dumped bad On a piece of Salmon... High Natural fat content.... I think we all will do it the thing is learn and listen to what your body tells you....good luck .....ron
