That much sugar would make me dump. You are so lucky.

Im sorry. I usually have not had any problems at all with dumping. But last night i was eating a Jello pudding cup sugar free and after the 2nd bite i just knew i was going to throw up. Not sure why. But my mouth started to get all watery my chest started hurting the pain in my upper abdomen started quivering and owwww i was hurting lasted about 10 mins never threw up. I think it was cuz i was full. But it had been almost 2 hours since i had dinner.< /p>

I track everything in mfp... Honestly all I focus on is hitting 75-85g of Protein a day... I don't even pay attention to calories and fat... I do know I usually am in the 600-700 cal a day range... Surgery 12-10-12... Down 112lbs so far... I must be doing something right

Awesome job!!!

I have no clue and it might not have been dumping. I have horrible Constipation due to lack of fluids. So the only thing I did different was besides my 2-3 times a week Miralax I took 3 days ago 2 dulcalax.

Sorry to hear that Nicole. I hope new Rx works for you.

I had some blood work to check something's mainly my kidney functioning since my hospitalization. All was normal but potassium was a little low. Dr told me to start eating a banana a day, lol. Next Thursday I go back in so that for a redraw cuz I think my electrolytes were in normal area but low. The Nurse said he wanted to recheck my electrolytes and potassium. So good news from Dr office today, I guess you can say that. Nothing major anyways :-)

My husband ordered himself a pizza for dinner tonight. Part of me is annoyed, because I feel like it's kind of rude to order a pizza and eat it in front of me, but on the other hand, he shouldn't have to give up his favorite foods just because I made this lifestyle change. He's one of the lucky ones, blessed with being naturally thin. Jerk.
