I think I just had my first dumping episode. I was drinking a Protein Shake on my way home from work and all of a sudden my stomach started cramping up big time, my mouth got all watery like I was gonna get sick. I was going to stop at the grocery store, but I mixed that Idea and just headed straight home. I thought I might have to pull over but I made it home.

The weird thing is I have been drinking these shakes since week 2 with no problem. Now I am going to be afraid to drink them again.

Omg I was just about to ask about Protein Shakes when I drink mines I get so sick I have to lay down I really don't know what to do because I'm over being sick like this I only drink them for breakfast to give me a boost on Protein but the way they make me feel I don't want it anymore

That is weird for sure. I have never reacted this way before. I am not sure why?

I eat black Beans all the time! So I'm assuming riced cauliflower just doesn't cut it?

Maybe it's time to let them go??? I'm supposed to be, but it's the easiest way to get a good amount of Protein right now. You didn't get any other symptoms other than stomach cramps, like about to throw up kind?

I feel like this with the vanilla ones. Too overly sweet for me.

Yes. I thought I was gonna have to pull over and get sick, but it went away after a couple of miles. I did have to hit the bathroom quick

That's dumping for sure. If you weren't having it before with them, did you maybe drink it too fast? That can bring it on too.

I tried to stop the Protein Shakes, but it is easier to drink one and hit my goal for the day so I started drinking them again.

I guess it's a good problem to have. If you recall I'd did that early on with that giant chewable Vitamin and had the dumps. It was awful!! All because I took it fast. I try to be slow now. Sometimes I catch myself going too fast, and I'll feel gross for a while. But not as bad as that first time. Either way, don't want to go that route.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
