Terrified of Dumping

Hi Everyone I am 4 days post op and feeling a lot better everyday. I have a question, so I was put on a liquid diet for two weeks, I have just been eating jello and drinking water. I am taking sips and eating 1oz of jello every 15 mins. And I am just trying to figure out my limits but don't want to go over board and start dumping. How much are you all eating or drinking and how do you know when to stop?

    You gotta drink your shakes though dear, gotta get your protein!!! You'll be fine, follow your docs rules and go slow

  • I've been fine with sugars and carbs so far. It's the grease and oil that gets me. Have to be very careful of the fats.

    Dumping can be a good thing... Well no its not! Lol but it does help identify foods you should stay away from. Remember everyones dumping is different. I dont get hot flashes and become dizzy... But

I've only had dumping twice and it was from drinking too fast because a pill got stuck so I kept drinking sips right after another.. Before I knew it I had drank a whole oz in less then a minute. That time I felt week and dizzy, got hot flashes and my new pouch felt like someone was ripping it out. Second time I ate my jello too quick and had the same experience minus the painful pouch... That was replaced my getting sick on the toilet !!! I quickly learned my lesson on taking small sips and bites and let some time go by in between ! Good luck !
