We just took them outside and what a damn ordeal! Thought it would be easier to have it done at the same time but it is work! They walk into EVERYTHING! hehe

Lol wait till one of the cones hits your shin or catches you just right in the back of the knee.

Ok how long does dumping last ? What exactly is it? I have had diarrhea ALL day and I thought maybe it was the dumping syndrome because last night my hubby and I went out for our anniversary and I had a bite of an apple tart (shhhh don't tell on me lol) but I was fine last night and first thing this morning before I even had a sip of Water the diarrhea started and all I ate all day was at 1 I had maybe half a scrambled egg cause I thought I was better and within a half hour I was nauseas then back to yhe bathroom UGHHH what is going on?

Typically it only lasts a few hours and starts either 30-60 minutes after eating, or, for late dumping, 1-3 hours after eating. A bite of a tart isn't typically going to be a large enough carbohydrate load to make you dump, even if made with sugar.....you'd have to have a large spoonful of pure sugar (for a point of reference, 1 cube of sugar has 2 grams of carbs, most dumpers require a carb load of 15+ grams, so 7 cubes of pure sugar, more or less).

Maybe a cumulative effect of the entire meal out irritated your gut or maybe a bug? No telling! Stay hydrated and hope it passes soon!!!!

This week has been completely blah in the food department for me. Living with my parents is rough. They have been doing a lot of fried foods lately. Need a reset tomorrow!

Back in the hospital...having weird TIA stroke - like symptoms. Now they think they're atypical Migraines. Very disconcerting.
