LESSON LEARNED... very first Dump



Recommended Posts

Today, I got sick as a dog. I had my first experience with DUMPING. I had 4 HUGE episodes of diarrhea, and threw up once as well.

The lesson? Don't eat Salmon patties. Seriously. Damn things may taste good, but they are sooo not worth it.

That sure as heck sounds like dumping syndrome alright, but salmon patties?! Man, that sucks. I've not eaten one of those since I was forced to as a kid. What is in them that caused it do you think? I honestly have no clue how the are made.

Also, are you a bypass or sleeve patient?

I think they are frequently fried. Maybe that was the problem?

I think it was because I used actual oil to fry them instead of just spraying the pan. It amounted in too much oil..

I won't be doing THAT again. ACK!

Ah, it was the added fat! I can completely empathize with you. Now I am thinking I need to give salmon patties a try. We have an air fryer that is probably my most used kitchen toy. "Fried" fish in that thing is fantastic.

I figure if I had just used the spray on oil, that wouldn't have happened... lol. Oh well, lesson learned. PAINFULLY.

HAHAHA

Man I have never dumped from fat. I think I would die, lol. Fat is my life.

Although the more stories I read, the more I think it is excessive calories hitting the intestines too fast, than the content of the food. I don't dump but I can make myself sick if I eat something that hits my intestines too fast.

@ShilohD How far out are you?

I'm at 7 weeks. 45 lbs lost, and honestly, this was the first time this has happened. Nothing I've eaten thus far has done this to me up mail now.

You kind of have to pace yourself for introducing new foods. You are going from bland foods with barely any Protein, fat or sugar, to regularish foods. You have to kinda chill at least until 3 months, then you can get more adventurous

I've tolerated everything well up to this point. And I WAS cautious. I mean, the patty was only 2.5 oz. And I only had the one. OMG! I WOULD HATE to imagine how it would have turned out if I had eaten a. Second one. GOOD GRIEF!

But, yes... I hear you. I shouldn't have done anything fried
STUPID MOVE ON MY PART

It is a learning process, everyone learns what they can tolerate by trial and error and it changes over time. Just wait till 3 months and try again.

I eat low carb fried fish once a week or 2 times a month. So I am not judging you on frying at all. I fry stuff all the time.

      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!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
