Non sugar dumping syndrome?



Recommended Posts

Attempted eggsalad one night and tunasalad the next. Both times I got sweaty and almost immediately had to use restroom. Now I am pretty sure its got to be the Mayonnaise but isn't "dumping" from sugar? I never really feel nauseated either. Just "lower tummy" issues. Besides "Dont eat mayo" does anyone have any insight about this?

I dump on all sorts of things. Mainly when I have over filled my stomach, mixed solids with liquid, eaten dairy... dumping sucks.

Okay so... I dump A LOT. And yes... I have a sleeve. Yes you can dump with a sleeve.

Sugar isn't the only thing that can cause dumping- its sugar in ALL forms like bread, pasta... rice... think carbs. Carbs are complex sugars. In your body it's the same thing.

That said I love carbs and sugar and refuse to not eat them. So I live with some dumping episodes and life goes on. It sucks but it's worth it to me.

If you want to prevent dumping eat Protein and very little carbs. Dairy also has a lot of sugar.

Dumping can happen from putting fluids on top of solids and over filling your tummy. So don't do those things. And you won't dump. Mostly.

Or do them. I do. f**k it. I like food and I'm gonna enjoy my life so sometimes I dump. It is what it is. Sometimes the cheesecake is simply worth it ;)

Lol...thanks. So far Im dumping on tunasalad and eggsalad. Which sucks because I was really looking forward to eating them in puree phase. Actually 90% of my ideas for puree phase had to do with Mayonnaise so now Im going to rethink my gameplan. Ugh. I didn't think about eating and drinking at the same time causing it so thanks for the heads up. I only thought of it in terms of feeling full. Oh God Yes.....some day there will be a f*#k it cheesecake day.....just not until I dont look like a cheesecake eater,lol.

I'm wondering the same thing as you! I've been on soft foods for 2 days now and so far all that I've tried to eat was egg salad and cheese. Woke up this morning running to the bathroom with diarrhea! Same as you, most of my soft food idea include a small amount of mayo. I just cannot eat tuna plain and the egg salad tasted divine.

I am on my 3rd week today. I made some tuna salad....7 ounce can of chicken of the sea with 2 tablespoons of the Kraft Mayonnaise made with Avocado Oil. I added onion powder and parsley flakes. Dry weight of can is 6 ounces so I divided the whole lot into 3 servings. The mayo literally did not taste any different than regular and it has half of the fat of regular. I highly recommend it as I did not have dumping but....every BODY is different.

Did you make this Tune and Egg salad yourself? Real mayo doesn't have sugar. It is just Oil, eggs and seasoning. Any pre-made tuna or egg salad you purchase is going to have sugar in it.

Eggs made me sick early on, like the first 3 months. Horrible gas, pains, everything. I'm fine with them now.

I would put money on the eggs over the mayo.

Are you using Miracle Whip? I know that has a sweeter taste maybe it has lots of sugar?

I would like to try the avocado Mayonnaise. I will wait until next week to try any mayo again though. The sweaty, uncomfortable bathroom trips were enough to scare me pretty good lol. I did make it myself and REALLY dislike Miracle Whip, but if I had used it that would make a lot of sense! Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I was told to wait an hour after drinking to eat and another hour after eating to drink Right now I am three days out after surgery and am having trouble getting 96 ounces down each day with tiny sips. t

If it was your first time trying those things, I wonder if it was the volume rather than the food itself? How much did you have? I could only manage 1 oz at first...

Have you tried making the tuna salad with plain greek yogurt instead of mayo? That's what I've been doing for the extra Protein. It tastes all right. Not quite as good, but a good replacement.

Update, I just ate tunasalad again today and everything is good. I guess it was too early for me to eat it. Thanks everyone for the input.

That's good- I was going to suggest using Greek yogurt instead of mayo. :)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
