Do You Think This Is Sleeve Dumping?



Recommended Posts

I had ordered a side of 2 scrambled eggs and a side of ham at Patty's Eggnest this morning. It certainly was not a lean cut of ham and was dripping with fat/oil.

I took a bite of egg and also two bites of ham, chewing in between each bite. Immediately after the ham bites, I didn't feel so good. The voices around me started to dim and sounded like far away. I started getting dizzy and got a bad case of needing to throw up both slime and food.

I spent most of the remainder of our Breakfast in the restroom wondering what happened. Remember it was only two bites of it. I also got a bad case of diarhea. 3 or 4 hours later now I am finally starting to feel better. Boy, my sleeve was pissed off this morning and took revenge on me this morning for whatever reason. This has not happened before in the last 3 months.

The experience disappointed me a little also because I was looking forward to eating there after shovelling 2 tons of manule compost this morning for the garden (zoo-doo as they call it). I worked up an appetite for some yummy eggs and Protein.

Needless to say, I am going to think twice before eating ham cooked that way again and probably won't eat at Patty's Eggnest again either. I also noticed that all their food tends to be undercooked a bit and they even use butter for making their eggs.

Is this sleeve dumping? Please let me know your thoughts.

The sleeve can't tolerate really fatty foods... this has happened to me twice and also after the 2nd bite.... learned my lesson the hard way :)

Note to self: avoid foods that appear fatty when they show up!. Thanks for sharing!

Sounds like dumping to me! Some will say with sleeve you cannot have dumping, but yes you can!! I really have to watch what I eat. If I can see the grease/fat/oil on it, I try to stay away from it. For me it takes a little more than 2 bites... well.. a little more time that is. I had a small piece of my fiance's steak one time, and it was very very greasy. I felt fine until we were waiting on the check. For me it lasts about 30-45 minutes, then I feel fine. I have not yet had the diarrhea after(knock on wood). I hope to never have that problem. My doctor's nurse said that eventually it gets a little better... but not by much.

Good luck!!

To me the greasy look to it would be the culprit. I'm only 10 days out, but have found that just the smell of things tend to turn my stomach such as french fries and fried chicken strips. I didn't eat it, but watched my husband. Just the smell started to piss my sleeve off. Hopefully that's a good indication that I won't be eating that stuff. I'm sorry you were so disappointed in something you were so looking forward to!

a wise sleever can give the reason, then we'll both know ;)

That used to be true but not so much any more. All margarines used to have transfats but now they are making some margarines without the transfats - like Smart Balance and some others too.

I think it's more likely to be the grease than the fat. I eat brisket quite often which isn't lean, but it isn't greasy either.

You are right absolutely right BTB.

There was definitely a lot of grease on the ham probably because they cooked it with other greasy meats or didn't clean the grill first. I thought about it briefly but the right alarms did not go off for me until it was too late.

We should be cautious and conscientious of how grease looks in prepared food as to not go through this horrid dumping experience again or ever

Fortunately i am normally very careful about keeping my sleeve in a happy state by eating at home where I know exactly what is going into my mouth.

A pissed off sleeve is not a fun experience. Imagine the talking orange on youtube with machine guns in a very bad mood...

I've using the heck out of my grill. Made some ribeyes and ham steaks this afternoon. On fact the coals are still hot. Kinda hard to make greasy food on the grill. In spite of what happened to you, ham steak and eggs sounds good for Breakfast in the morning.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
