Im 9 days post op and the same protien shake day after day started to get tiring. I decided to spice it up a little by adding a little peanutbutter to the blender (as ive been told that was ok to do) anyways about 5-10 min after drinking my shake I started to get really nauseous and dizzy i almost passed out walking to the bedroom to lay down. After laying down for about 20 min or so i got back up and felt fine. Did I just experience dumping? I dont know what else could explain it what would have made me dump? The peanutbutter itself?

Perhaps low blood sugar? Dumping to my understanding involves bathroom issues.

Same happened to me when i put peanut once in a shake, never tried it again, having said that have been fine with peanut butter ever since, never tried it in a shake again! I think it might be like a dunping reaction:huh:

Dumping does not necessarily involve the bathroom, although for me, it does eventually. It was probably the fat in the Peanut Butter.

I get it when I eat something sweet and full of fat. I get nauseous, dizzy, sweaty, and eventually diarrhea. It does not happen very often anymore, now that I am so far out from surgery, but in the beginning, it happened when I ate something full of fat.

months ago I posted here about feeling "stoned" from peanut butter; the first time I had peanut butter was about 2 months post op. I slowly licked a tablespoon of peanut butter by itself and by the time I was done I felt like I had just knocked back shot of something. Didn't get sick but could've taken a niiice nap. =)

I did the same thing...probably at about the same time, 9-10 days post-op and tried the Peanut Butter in the shake thing and I don't remember exactly the symptoms but I know I didn't feel good after drinking it. And I used an all-natural peanut butter (trying to be careful about "extra" hidden ingredients) and it was basically peanut butter made from peanuts and nothing else.

I can tell you that I didn't try it again and I haven't had peanut butter since.

If you want the wonderful taste of peanut butter without the fat and calories, try PB2. Its a powdered peanut butter. And unlike some of the other "fake" peanut butters, this is made from actual peanuts that are pressed and ground into a powder. The process takes all the fat and oils out of it. And if you want actual peanut butter than you can spread, just add a couple tablespoons of water (or milk or skim milk or almond milk) to the powder and mix it up. Yummy!!

I was sleeved on November 10th and I wasn't even allowed to have Peanut Butter in my diet until two days ago. I do not know the reason why, but I am imagining its because of the heaviness and the oils in peanut butter. Be careful adding items that haven't been approved yet..especially that recent since your surgery.

Good luck!!!!

WOW, thats crazy! I've been using PB since week 2 in my shakes (love me some chocolate PB shakes!) and I've never had a problem!!!

crazy, i guess im not the only one with a weird reaction to peanut butter. I guess ill be omiting it from my diet, at least for the time being.
