What's normal after dumping?

I'm glad you are offended, hopefully you will pay attention. My intention wasn't to pat you on the head and say good job.

You know you are making questionable and poor choices which is why you wrote a whole paragraph in your maximizing your money at the buffet thread telling people what NOT to tell you, because you already knew the whole idea was a disaster.

Most of the vets won't touch this thread with a 10 foot pole because they just don't care but you are self sabotaging and you need to stop it.

You couldn't be more lost or off base about me if you were in the middle of the pacific ocean on a raft without a map. I am paying attention - that doesn't mean the kinds of things you're posting are acceptable or okay.

Clearly you didn't get my point in the previous thread.. I was asking how to make the most out of it because I DID NOT GET A CHOICE IN WHERE WE WENT - read that again.. it was my friend's birthday.. she chose the location and because I care about her I went... right now I AM UNEMPLOYED AND MAKING ABOUT $150 A MONTH - read that again... So yes I absolutely have a right to care about and ask about how to make the most out of a buffet when I am scrimping by on VERY little money. Normally when I go out to eat at a restaurant and order an entree it's simple because I can box up what I don't eat and take it home... That cannot be done at a buffet... and it wasn't all about how to stuff the most in my mouth quite frankly.... it was about how to make the most of the experience and the amount of money spent when I don't have that much to spend...

And frankly I got lots of good advice from people - like try one bite of a lot of new things, or see if they would let me do a takeout container by the pound so I don't have to pay the buffet price.. ask if I could do a child buffet... These are all acceptable... gracious answers along the lines of what I asked.. You have no business judging me or anyone else on this forum by "reading between the lines" of various threads they post.

I did not "know" the idea was a disaster and it WAS NOT A DISASTER... read that again THE BUFFET WAS NOT A DISASTER. I managed to stay on program and feel like I didn't get jipped money wise based on the tips in that thread which was what that thread was about And why I spent a whole paragraph telling people what I didn't want to hear - because I wanted responses that would help - not salty responses judging me for wanting to get the most of it and have a good experience... just like anyone else would want to.

And guess what I'm paying attention - maybe you should too.. I'm down 35 pounds.. PCP says I'm doing amazing, feel better than I ever have, more active than I ever have been.. hard core work outs 3-5 times a week, mostly low carb, 60 gram Protein / 64 oz Fluid a day and 800 calories... two clothing sizes down.. I AM SUCCEEDING.. Just because I'm not doing it YOUR way doesn't mean I'm not doing it the right way.. or making a lot of bad decisions read it again

I. AM. SUCCEEDING.

I would appreciate if you would not post judgmental comments on my threads when I ask questions from reading between the lines and ASSUMING (wrongly) that I'm not doing well or won't continue to do well.

@@LipstickLady I don't blame you there. But really... am I supposed to sit here and allow someone to make accusations about me that are untrue, unfounded, and unreasonable based on what she "assumes" based on other posts I've made.. - especially when I didn't ask for opinions in the first place...

I specifically asked to know about dumping and what people experience after.. Not to have someone come in here and post that I'm making poor food decisions and now is the time for me to learn better habits. I am not here to be walked over and judged and won't tolerate it.

Now if she had some kind of logical point I'd listen. Happily. But she doesn't. As a matter of fact I've been told by my entire medical team (who actually KNOW me ) how WELL I'm doing. So. I feel I've a right to defend myself.

Well. I made an unwise food decision today. Sigh. And dumped. Like badly. An hour on the toilet and then having it come out both ends at once (more embarrassing still I'm at a relatives house not at home so they all know!) but what I want to know is what's normal after dumping. Now that I've dumped. I feel exhausted. I don't want clothes on. I feel hot all over my body. I just want to lay naked with ice on me. Is this normal ? Those of you who have dumped what feelings physical sensations did you have after the dumping ended?

All of those symptoms took about an hour to feel better.

It was chicken salad but it had sugar in it. I really didn't think putting sugar in chicken salad was common. I certainly have never seen a chicken salad recipe call for it. Home made chicken salad never made me dump. It was not the fat it was the sugar, since I was regularly eating chicken salad at home.

I was eating at a resturant and didn't think to ask. I always ask now.

This is one of my biggest fears. I check the menu's as much as possible prior to eating out because its crazy how much added sugar exists in recipes.

Today I was faced with all kinds of tempting foods. The smells were great but the thought of dumping syndrome was enough to make me keep on walking.

#5 General Tso's chicken.< br>But I always came back for more, enough that I should have some backup alarms when I need to use the toilet.

As a sleeved chick who dumps, I'm going to have to disagree! I dump from high sugar almost always, but other random times pretty regularly. No rhyme or reason, really. Three + years out, here.

What is considered high sugar.
I am hoping to have a 20oz Coca-Cola sometime this year

That's a quarter cup of sugar, plus carbonation, plus caffeine. Kind of the axis of evil right there. And no nutritional benefits at all. Why are you hoping for that particular food?

I dont have the toilet dumping. I have the vomiting dumping. Several things trigger it, but garlic, rich foods too are big offender. I am fortunate to have a tell. If my nose starts to run after eating something, I know I have less than 3 minutes to find a bathroom or garbage pail.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
