What the heck just happend to me?



Recommended Posts

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.:huh:

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!!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
