HELP !!!! Had sugar by accident



Recommended Posts

I picked up Carnation Protein Shake at Walmart and was so focused on Protein content that I didn't realize it had 12g of sugar in it [emoji15][emoji15][emoji15] I immediately quit drinking them but didn't notice it until today and I have had 3 of them between yesterday morning and this evening!!! I didn't feel sick or anything just scared I may have done something terrible I shouldn't have.....PLEASE TELL ME SOMEONE ELSE HAS DONE THIS TOO!!! By the way my sleeve surgery was 4/25/17.

Not the end of the world. Just don't drink anymore, and move on.

That is not the worst thing in the world, unless you are reacting to sugar you will be fine and look at the bright side, it reminds you to read the whole label when you purchase something new

Thanks !!! I was so worried and have been super strict .....I can't believe I didn't see that when I bought them. Thank GOD I didn't go through DUMPING stage from it . My worst fear was it would mess my incision or healing up.

Dumping can happen with a sleeve, but it's much more likely to occur in gastric bypass patients. You'll be fine. People have done way worse (intentionally) than a little mistake like that. Pre-made stuff like Carnation you have to be really careful with. They can have a lot of hidden things in them. Long term I think it's better to invest in a good Blender Bottle and find a powdered Protein that you like. Usually a lot cheaper than the pre-made stuff as well.

It was my birthday May 1st first! I was sleeved March 10, 2017. I had a piece of cake yesterday with my family for the first time since my surgery. About 5 minutes later I felt like OMGGGG what have I done[emoji15][emoji26]!!! Not a good feeling at all... I learned my lesson and I will never do this again. If I could encourage sleevers...DONT DO IT it's not WORTH it!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
