Black Diamond - Really? I was sleeved the same day and I'm on soft/mushies. So boiled, scrambled, and egg salad, tuna salad, oatmeal, anything I can put thru the blender and make mushy.

What's getting to me though is coffee. ugh 2 times now, within an hour I'm in the bathroom. I saw a mug at 5 Below the other day that I'm thinking of getting now. It said "Coffee Makes Me Poop".

My nurse practitioner said we absolutely CAN get dumping. I get it. Mine is associated with too much fat. For the first several months whenever I ate dinner outside of my house I immediately had to lay down...chills, rapid heartbeat, bathroom visits frequently. It's subsided a little now, but I'm a lot more careful of what/how much I eat while away from home. Some docs say this does not happen outside of the bypass, but there's no other name for this.

Yes, I do - and I'm over a year out.

There is some new research into this. Where they THOUGHT it wouldn't cause it, they are now finding it does cause dumping in most cases.

I am fine with non-refined sweeteners like honey, coconut sugar, etc. But refined white sugar and corn Syrup are what really get me.

Nothing fatty or fried for me. Only took one lesson to teach me the hard way. I never did throw up but I walked around holding it back for 2 hours. Ugh it was awful. Can have a bite or two of sweets but not a lot. No bread or I am in pain. No seafood anymore as it tastes downright awful to me now. Lettuce ....... I may as well eat it while sitting on the toilet.

But, if you look at what I listed, it's nothing to be overly upset about. It's things I shouldn't be eating (minus the seafood) anyways.

Oh this is Well Said!!!

I mean, we might 'mentally miss' some foods, but we can live without them, right?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
