Not such good choices today ... Gonna pay for it, I think

Today, I've made some really not so good choices.  First, my daughter and I were out shopping and she was hungry.  In my bag, I had snacks...no excuse for what I did.  She ordered a steak biscuit with gravy, so I ordered a side of bacon.  It was time for my snack, so I decided that would be my snack.  The order was huge!  I thought it would be 2 slices or so...but it was more like 10 slices of bacon.  I didn't eat a lot and brought most home with me.  Even before my surgery, I was eating turkey bacon and this was like heaven, real bacon.  It settled well, with a slight bit of discomfort at first. 
Tonight, however, was a BIG HUGE mistake.  My husband was going to Famous Dave's for BBQ carryout.  I have been talking about how I miss ribs and was looking forward to making some ribs with sugar free BBQ sauce.  So, I decided to have a few bites of chicken and some pulled pork without sauce.  Then I had a bite of coleslaw and a few bites of corn on the cob.  I chewed everything like crazy.  The kicker was the rib...sooo good.  I tried to wipe off all of the sauce and took two small...very small bites of the rib.  Now, it's been about 25 minutes and I'm hurting!  My chest hurts, down to my left upper tummy. I kinda feel like I'm going to vomit, but it is just sitting there in my chest. It was good, but not good enough to feel this way.  I don't know if this is "dumping"?? I know I've had too many fats and I'm afraid of what might come as a result of that.    Tomorrow, I am BACK on track! 
I'm scared to drink now.  I think I'll wait closer to an hour, maybe?  Wish me luck!
 

My thoughts are with you. We all make mistakes! Lesson learned! Hugs

Thank you!

No, that's not dumping.  It sounds like either you ate too much or maybe didn't chew enough and something is stuck.  It'll pass.

Thank you! 

Thank you!  I'm so scared of dumping, and up until now I was afraid to try anything much other than homemade foods.  BBQ sounded so good.  I'll stick with what I make for a while longer before I venture out into the world of fast foods or restaurant foods. Knowing what I put into my foods makes me less concerned about how my body will tolerate it.  Although, I've read lots of posts about something that someone had been eating all along without problems, suddenly causes a problem.
Like I said, the food wasn't good enough to feel like this. 
 

Cut yourself a break...its it OKAY.  You won't want to feel like that again, so you'll be more careful in the future.  But a few bites of protein that is mostly okay is part of living.  Just don't rely on these foods on any regular basis, you'll be fine.

Thank you!  I think it's habit to beat myself up for making poor choices.  I'm making a conscious effort to not do this and to learn from mistakes and move on.  You are right...I don't want to feel this again! 

I keep looking in your post for the "bad choices". I eat bacon every week. I cook it in the microwave til crispy and all the grease is absorbed by the paper towels but it's protein and it's good and I enjoy it so I don't see it as a "bad choice".

I've also tried pulled pork with sauce... that was a no no not sure why but ugh made me sick. chicken I eat almost daily. And I've had ribs on the grill with and without BBQ sauce. They actually sit well but I can't have much before I'm full.

I'd guess perhaps you ate too much at the sitting but I don't see anything horrible in the choices. Not sure how far out you are but if corn and cole slaw is on your plan along with the meat no biggie.

My doc wants us to wait an hour after eating and when I do dense protein like the meats you discuss I wait the whole hour because it feels better.

I'm almost 6 weeks out.  I'm thinking it was probably too much food, or the sauce...maybe corn?  I dunno.  I just introduced too many new things to know what the problem was.  It hurt all night, up until I took a pain pill to sleep.  I love BBQ, but not enough to feel that again.  I'll wait until later and try again. The bacon, didn't really bother me, but I didn't think it was a good choice.  I've been told by several people that it is an OK protein and we do need fats, so that is something I will have...just not frequently. 
Thank you for your feedback and advice.  It helps to hear from experience and successful WLS folks.
