Ok warning this is a STUPID QUESTION but I think I need some clarification. What exactly is dumping? Without being to blunt, I thought it was after you eat something, it immediately goes through you and your on the toilet. However, somethings I've read I'm not so sure that is exactl what it is...I think it's part of it but is there more??

Sorry to be so ignorant....

I think I dumped last night ... My tummy started cramping really bad and then BAM ! I was sprinting towards the toilet for about 30 minutes ! Afterwards, I felt better ! Everyone experiences dumping differently . I didn't have any vomiting just cramping and sweating and diahrea (sp)

I only did it once. Throwing up, sweating and dizzy. It was over in about 30-45 minutes. But it came on very quick!!

My experience with it was sweating, heart racing, dizzy, sometimes diarrhea. After it passes I felt like I ran a marathon, tired and no energy. But everyone experiences it differently.

Well i am 22 weeks out and i have had dumping a few times. Once with diarrhea, stomach cramping, and just the over all feeling of fatigue. The other times have been vomiting, and that's usually an immediate effect. (For me) with the vomiting, usaully comes light headedness.

Everyone is different, and dumps on different things. Goodluck ツ

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
