    Thank you everybody. The mental part was tough last night. Just need get thru this liquid diet. I never realized how much food is in your face until you can’t have it. Tv social media billboard etc.

    Oh you have not seen anything yet - After the surgery you will notice a lot more- You will be amazed how people eat and gorge themselves - Just driving you get ambushed with signs, promotions, etc.
    This liquid week sucks its hard, probably the hardest time for alot of us. You may want to read a long post i did a few weeks back on the Getting Prepared and Head issues. It makes the journey alot easier if you get all the ducks in a row, Unlike me who Screwed up bad and had to recover making the journey hard till i got my stuff togethor

    AJ is right, don't over think it. I'm 4 months out and only experienced dumping twice and it was because I was off my game and ate something wrong. I'm back to eating right and I'm good. Its very tempting to try new things or old things that we used to eat but If you stick to eating the right things, you'll be good.

    I had my bypass Jan,2017 and I never had a dumping problem, just try not to eat a lot and it's hard to do but eat a little at a time. I lost 60 to 70 pounds and I feel wonderful and looks great !!! People I worked with that I haven't seen in 15 yrs didn't even know who I was and I get that from people who was around me at the time I was larger. I don't use fat because that a bad word for others to feel good and to make you feel bad. I had the surgery for my health, I became a diabetic and had high blood pressure and high cholesterol. And now I'm free !!! So, go for it and do it for yourself, not for how someone feels about you because all of us large or small is beautiful.

    I am 7 weeks post op. Haven't experienced dumping yet. I have been sticking with the prescribed diet. I dont drink with my meals and I dont eat sugary foods. I'm sure there will be something in the future that causes it but i don't really think it's a common thing unless you're not eating right. I was first set for sleeve but dr talked me into bypass. He said he has to do more revisions of sleeves to bypass then any other surgery. So far so good for me. So I'm sure this will be a good decision for you as well.
