I had surgery 4 months ago and have never had a dumping experience. I have had occasional diarrhea but no dumping which I'm OK with. I know my limits and stay away from foods high in sugars or carbs.

Im 3 months tomorrow... And have been able to eat anything without any problems - but ive not tried anything sugary. The only thing that has made my stomach go a bit funny was a small slice of watermelon ( i couldnt resist it with feta cheese)....

Just curious if there is anyone on here that doesn't dump?

xo Hilary

My dumping is more like hotflashing coupled with dizziness and nausea. Ive only done it like 3x and it was never from bad foods

I can eat and drink anything without dumping. I don't dump... Which I good I like my Protein Shake with a little maple sweetener in it. My nut said that it was fine. I just have to be sure to chew well, I've gotten food stuck a few times and had to bring it back up.

I haven't had any dumping issues. I was surprised since I hoped it would keep me accountable. I just have to make sure to hold myself accountable and change my habits so I don't get back to where I started!

I am also 4 months post and don't experience dumping. I must say I was very disappointed about this! My surgeon just laughed at my honest answer, but I wanted it to fear testing the limits.

Working on my self control is hard :(

I am two weeks post op and thus far have not experienced dumping. I've made sure not to eat or drink anything known to cause it. I am hoping that it is avoidable.

I have taken small bites of a Peanut Butter cookie, and a small bit of brownie, did not get dumping. I'm actually ok with not dumping. Sugar and sweets were never my downfall, I am a portion hog. I cannot just eat a normal serving size of anything, I have to eat an army's worth, so the restriction is the part that I love. I only even took bites of those because the kids and I were making Christmas Cookies and goodies for my annual Christmas party.

You and I are the same! It was quite an adjustment to only be able to have 2-3 bites and BE DONE. I hurt if I eat more. I've accepted it and I am happy that I am actually full! Portioning has always been my issue- 3 to normal 1 serving- started when I was preggers....... Well it got bad when I was Prego. I've had issues forever! Now I feel very full and I love it. I think I am going to be a slow loser. I am 14 days out and only lost 15lbs. I know that is great, but for some reason I thought it would be more!

Me too! Can't do any yogurt. : ( but I can take a bite or two of any sweet and be ok. Half a cookie is too much. Excess fat also makes me feel icky nausea gotta go to bed. Then in hour and a half I'm fine. It's weird...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
