HE'S MY FAVORITE SNOWBOARDER 😀

💜 CONGRATULATIONS 💜

Well I'm up late for a terrible reason. But I thought I should leave record of this because you don't see it on the boards often. I had VSG but I have the unfortunate side effects of dumping and late dumping possibly even reactive hypoglycemia. I need to confirm the later with my doctor the next episode. The very first time it happened or that I can remember, I was 4 months post of in Naples. I was taking a coffee and felt a wave of flush wash over me but it disappeared immediately. Thought nothing of it. The next time I was in Paris, Nothing out of the ordinary lol. I had a pettit croissant and then a spoonful of panna cotta and I thought I was dying. Not exaggerating. Room spinning, heart racing, sight failing all in french subtitles. Took an hour to pass in a highly ornate turn of the (17th) century bathroom. The next few times I was on home soil eating (safely/properly cooked) homemade curried chicken breast. Then roasted lamb, next a tossed salad , then means and even once Greek yogurt! But not dessert/pastries again? Whatever...I'm sure it will happen again Absolutely no rhyme or reason. Every time it happens now I can't predict why, when or what foods will cause it. Just tonight peanuts and salmon pate. My usual suspects. I nearly went to The ER, it was that bad but I passed out in bed. Well now I'm awake to tell the tale. So I maybe a unicorn, who knows, but if you are banking on VSG not causing dumping syndrome, you may be surprised...

OMG auto correct was not working well for me this day y'all 😀😭😶

Holding steady at 155 y'all 😍

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 *whispers thanks*

What is CBT?

Sadly, other people's habits will not stop during this process but you can ask them to stop ordering out whike you're around in solidarity of your efforts. If they don't oh well but at least you advocated for yourself. Good luck next week 💜

🔼 Agreed 🔼 Also check out Intermittent Fasting

😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 #6 can be substituted to any Bariatric friendly recipe to share with someone. Maybe protein cookies that are store bought.

IF included in the healing regimen!

Ok updates: This has absolutely continued to happen. It happened this Sunday evening and monday afternoon. Both times I was minding my business eating protein rich foods (greek yogurt w/ granola & chicken with roasted vegetables) I felt like i might pass out during the incidents but i didn't. Just wanted to cry a little. But i think it has now happened the very most with yogurt, so I may cut back or give it up completely. (It's not the granola... It was happening with every variation of a parfait i made. Only the yogurt is the common factor)

Very possible. I dump also.

I'm going to make diabetic friendly oatmeal raisin cookies for my stepfather!!!! I 💖 substituting ingredients. Friends will never really notice or care while eating them if they are delicious 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Yassssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Its the only way I can tolerate it also (and in tea to a lesser extent) 💜 Congratulations on a safe surgery 💜

Walking far and not caring. Wearing a bikini at the beach (with high waisted shorts) and feeling perfectly comfortable 💗
