We just took them outside and what a damn ordeal! Thought it would be easier to have it done at the same time but it is work! They walk into EVERYTHING! hehe

Lol wait till one of the cones hits your shin or catches you just right in the back of the knee.

Typically it only lasts a few hours and starts either 30-60 minutes after eating, or, for late dumping, 1-3 hours after eating. A bite of a tart isn't typically going to be a large enough carbohydrate load to make you dump, even if made with sugar.....you'd have to have a large spoonful of pure sugar (for a point of reference, 1 cube of sugar has 2 grams of carbs, most dumpers require a carb load of 15+ grams, so 7 cubes of pure sugar, more or less).

Maybe a cumulative effect of the entire meal out irritated your gut or maybe a bug? No telling! Stay hydrated and hope it passes soon!!!!

This week has been completely blah in the food department for me. Living with my parents is rough. They have been doing a lot of fried foods lately. Need a reset tomorrow!

Back in the hospital...having weird TIA stroke - like symptoms. Now they think they're atypical Migraines. Very disconcerting.

      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.

      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!!
