RNYKristin 4 Posted August 17, 2012 Not sure if this is right place to vent a little bit. If not, could someone please point me in the right direction? So....I had Panda Express today. It was a mother daughter outing, we went dress shopping for my cousin's wedding and my daughter wanted to go to PE. I said yes, I thought that I would be able to handle it, BOY was I wrong. Not only did I get sick, literally, after 2 bites but now I have this aweful quilt that I am feeling. I feel miserable that I even went there. Remind you, I am almost 4 weeks post-op. I feel like I should be exercising or something but it's so dang hot here in the PNW (pacific northwest) that going outside would be murder. I don't understand why I am feeling this way. Am I going to feel this way every time I try something that I used to like? This is a learning process, but it is a mental processes as well. /sigh Welp, thanks for reading.

jeanetteramirez2 45 Posted August 17, 2012 Hey, I'm only 17 days post op but I think what you're going thru is normal!! I live in FL and its super hot here too!! Did PE make you dump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cshort83 40 Posted August 17, 2012 What did you eat there? If you ate too fast it can make you feel bad. If you ate something (meat, veggie, rice) too soon, your pouch may not like it. It may have been the way the food was prepared (grease/oil). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbrks2012 23 Posted August 17, 2012 If its to hot outside I have found this walking DVDs that you can get at Walmart for about 10$ you can do a mile a day or if you are feeling good that day you can do up to 5 miles. Also the DVD has exercises to tone your legs and arms there great DVDs and are worth buying. 1 RNYKristin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for the suggestion. And it will be great since I live in Oregon, where it rains alot, having those dvd's on hand will be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No...well I am not sure if it made me dump. I haven't experienced any of the symptoms of dumping. I think I ate too fast possibly. But man when it's ready to come up, you better find a bathroom fast. I barley made it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RNYKristin 4 Posted August 17, 2012 I ordered a bowl, chow mein and a chicken vegi side. I forgot what it was called. But..I had 1 small bite of chow mein and 1 small bite of chicken. But technically I am supposed to be in the puree stage, so I am thinking that I just got over zealous and ate too fast or the chow mein didn't sit well. I normally don't have an issue with chicken.
