Although there are still unanswered questions when it comes to dumping, there is little doubt that it is related to blood sugar - which includes too high (hyperglycemia) and too low (hypoglycemia). That implies that if you eat "X" food when your blood sugar is high, dumping could result. But eat the same food when your blood sugar is low, and you may not experience any dumping. About 2/3 of folks who experience dumping have "early" dumping which usually occurs within 15 to 30 minutes after eating and sometimes (but not always) results in vomiting. 1/3 experience "late" dumping which usually occurs two to three hours after eating but may occur as late as twelve hours after eating. Vomiting is less common with late dumping although the overall shakiness and fatigue are still quite unpleasant. And about 50% of folks never experience dumping at all. It's a good idea to also remember that although dumping is most commonly associated with sugar, it can occur as the result of eating too many carbs or fats as well.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
