Dumb...dumb...de dumb...DUMP!

So just when things are rolling along & I have made it to a year & think I have this thing mastered I do they DUMBEST thing and decide that at my son's Third Birthday Party today I can have some frosting off of his Birthday Cake....it was just the frosting that was between the pull apart cupcakes....I didn't eat any of the "cake" part---it was equivalent to about 2 to 3 tablespoons of frosting (okay..maybe a little more) and w/in 10 minutes I was so out of it that I went to the bathroom & got so sick that when I walked out it looked like I had been crying (really, I should have been crying at how stupid I was!). 

Then, I became so exhausted that I could barely talk to anyone at the party....luckily cake is at the end of a party & not the beginning. 

After having to lay down & sleep for more than two hours I was able to rise from the dumb-dumping dead graveyard & function a bit.

Why? Why? Why?  Such an addiction...even a year later sugar remains my achilles' heal & I still test it.  I flunked the test for sure today!

So...beware....our bodies have a way of reminding us that we have been surgically altered even when we are too stupid to forget.

xo, M.

That did not sound fun but looking on the bright side - your tool is working.

Congrats on your 1 year anniversary - you have done so well with your tool.

Micheala,

That sounds like an improvement from your Target lemonade dumping episode. That was so funny & scary at the same time. Thanks for keeping us warned.

Congratulations on the dump-fest! Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!! Betcha' won't be doing frosting again any time soon. That dumping dance I make the surgeons do during surgery works...hee, hee, hee.

Big no-no's for me: frosting / icing, glaze, oreos, anything made with condensed milk (i.e.- key lime pie). All of the above will make me very sick. If I eat sweets, which is not often, they are usually either no sugar added or made with Splenda.

I know it's hard..but resist the urge. Dumping certainly helps with that. :-)

Bless your tummie, we've all felt your pain!!! Not Fun at all! But yes it is just one of the tools that have been given to us, that says hey, no more can you do that, that make us big,unhealthy and has it's way of mak'n us very WISE!!!!  And there are certain folks that are adapted to this kind of oops! And our bods just let us know that we don't wanna oops again! I still don't do Arby's , KFC grilled it just doesn't even sound good any which way. Notta gonna happen!!!!!!!!
