My surgeons office said people can dump from sugar alcohol but I have had things with 29 g of sugar in them and haven't dumped yet so I guess it depends on the person! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Even though your dr doesn't require you to do the pre op diet I would definitely stop caffeine and soda if you drink it and I would start eating high Protein low carb and fresh fruit and veggies it will get your body used to a new kind of life!!! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Thanks for starting the new TGIF weigh in!! Last week 05/04: 183.2 this week 05/11: 180.2 So 3 lbs lost! But if you want to get technical my new scale says 190 STILL!!!! So I don't know if the new scale is working right or not but it's became my worst enemy! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Yes I did about a month out.... Worst idea ever!!! I started sweating so bad my shirt was soaked in 5 minutes, I felt light headed like I was gonna pass out, I couldn't breathe and my blood pressure dropped really low an hour after I had it happen we took my blood pressure and it was 87/58 so there's no telling how low it actually was when all that happened to me! We almost had to call the ambulance! I will NEVER EVER do that again!! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Also eat about a 1/2 cup for every meal so like Breakfast I do one packet of apple cinnamon oatmeal lunch I do 1/4 cup of tuna and some pita crackers and dinner I do 1/4 cup Protein (chicken ie other meats or beans) and 1/4 cup of fruit or veggies! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I agree with panda if you don't know if your hungry then most likely you are not! I still to this day have head hunger I will crave things...sometimes...but not because I am hungry because I still sometimes can't tell the difference between head hunger and actual hunger! The thing I do when I am craving something I eat a healthy snack, Protein bar or Protein shake and once my belly gets full I guess it sends those signals to my brain and then whatever I was craving for goes away like I am fully satisfied! It's so strange to feel that way but when I have the head hunger for bad things but eat the good things and it makes it go away it lets me know that they were indeed head hunger and not real hunger!!
