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?

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!!!!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
