I learned my lesson today its been a very stressful 2 weeks But it hasnt affected my eatting ive been doing fine with that ! Today I have two very sick children and we also had a fire in our home and had to call the FD! We are ok very shook up but anyways all I have just eaten once today for Breakfast and thats it i had to take my children to the dr this afternoon but my nerves were completely shot and I was needing some caffeine which I usually just drink a small cup of coffee a day with diet hot chocolate mix mixed in it well stupid me stopped to get the girls something to eat at mcd's and thought I'll get a no fat mocha knowing it has alot of suger in it and I watch my sugar intake every day well guess what got drank and I had a dumping episode well lesson learned set there and take it because your the dumby that chose to drink it so you suffer the after math from it ! Headache racing heart and nausa! I will never do that again knowing better!!!!!!!

yikes...I thought one of the advantages of the sleeve surgery over gastric bypass was that you didn't have worries about dumping with VSG...has anybody else experienced dumping with VSG? I am also sorry about your problem, Mandy...hope it is over soon

When you cut sugar/fat/carbs out of your diet in a big way (as most of us do) any time you reintroduce them in to your diet in any significant quantity (like a sugary drink) you'll usually have an adverse reaction. It's not dumping in the RNY sense, but the body lets you know that it's not really cool with what you just did and reacts accordingly.

When I was doing hardcore atkins/SB years ago, the first piece of apple I ate after months of no sugars made me dizzy and nauseated. My body just wasn't used to it any more.

I have dumping if I eat anything too rich. I was at a Christmas party & tried a tablespoon of the artichoke dip. It stayed w me for about 15 minutes & all of a sudden I Had to get to a bathroom ASAP! This sleeve is a very good behavior modification tool...

I am hesitant to admit this but the other day I had some frozen yogurt with my husband, not even a large quantity really, maybe 4 OZ... it went RIGHT through me, I felt like I was going to throw up... I won't be doing that again, not to mention its bad for weight loss.

Don't be so hard on yourself. You had a very stressful day. I'm glad everyone's ok though. At least now you know what not to order ;)

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
