Well, the box of cookies that have been in my cabinet since Christmas was calling my name today. I decided to see what would happen if I ate one.

I am 9 weeks post-op and have been feeling great. Food is going in with no issues. I am keeping up my fluids and eating protein as much as possible.

Then the cookies haunted me. The first few bites were amazing. Sooooo I had another one... and then another...

And then I felt sick and continued to feel sick for about an hour. Headache, stomach ache, overall weakness, running to the bathroom, passing crazy gas... all for a few cookies.

Lesson Learned - DON'T eat the cookies. It's just not worth it!

I feel your moment of bliss on the lips. Then its du, du dump time. I haven''t had surgery, but I do have Crohn's and flour is the enemy to me; with the same symptoms you described. Note to the wise: Get rid of all the food porn in the cute little pacs.
