Suuuuuuuuper!... So this evening in a rush to eat I ate my food faster,... Much faster then I should have and you guessed it... Dumping occurred.

Silly silly move Mr. Potato Head!... My poor wife who had never seen me dump before was concerned so I took this as an opportunity to teach her as to the finer points of dumping.

The good thing is that it wasn't the food as te moment I felt better(which was about 5 minutes later, the benefits of being a fast dumper) I was able to return to my meal and finish it off without any problems once I slowed down.

Oh well, live and learn ... And learn some more, or again ;)

I had a half cup of spinach souffle and 3 organic chicken pot stickers...

It wasn't the food that cause me to dump but rather the speed that I eat my first few bites that did it. I was able to recover quickly and finish my meal off without any problems

I think that is what has been happening to me. I'm eating too fast and feeling sick to my belly. I have to slow down as well.

I am about 4 months out and I know immediatiately when I have eaten too fast or not chewed enough. It literally feels like my food is stuck in my throat and the only way to resolve the psin is to have it come back up. It is the most miserable thing ever! I feel your pain brother!

I've found the easiest thing is to not wait more than 3 hours between eating, then I'm not so hungry!

I am the same way! It hasn't been anything I have eaten, but I was eating chicken and the minute I swallowed I knew I hadn't chewed enough. Foamies then a little vomiting. Learned my lesson. Been feeling kinda crappy since.

It's weird that we know the second we swallow if we chewed it enough or not! But saddly by then its too late :( its happened to me twice and its not fun.

Gastric bypass will definitely teach you to eat slower. I've never had it come back but I have a couple of occasions where I was undeniably sorry I ate it so fast. A good thing I reckon in the overall scheme of things. In my case, eating too fast is also usually synonymous with not chewing well enough. Very uncomfortable!!

I had a bit of chicken and as soon as it started down I knew if was not going to sit well my god that was the worst pain I have ever felt. Never knew throwing up could make you feel so good.

      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.
