Had cake for first time....

[jultrim18 132]

I am 8 weeks post op. Yesterday I went to a baptism. There was cake, and I decided to have a few bites of my piece.

Oh my goodness! I completely forgot about the dumping syndrome! I was in the car on my way home. It was a 1.5hour drive. I thought I was going to die. My poor belly. I was so nauseous and lightheaded and cramping so bad. I never want that to happen again.

Anyone else experience this? Also, this was my first “cheat” and I can’t help but feel guilty.

Always try new foods at home, for this very reason. Sounds like classic dumping syndrome.

Forgive yourself.

shake off, stand up and refresh. I’m guessing the sugar is what did it :( hope your feeling better soon!

I feel your pain, literally. I second the motion to only try new things at home and things with sketchy carb and fat content proceed with caution

Safe Journey!
