I've never been a fan of regular mustard, but since surgery that's all i use besides seasoning and mayo. I can't get enough.

Throwing up from eating too fast isn't considered dumping. Dumping is from eating foods that are sugary, greasy, or high in carbs. This causes an actual body reaction, which is a lot more than just vomiting. I have heard people say that once you dump, you know it. I must have ate too fast today myself, cuz the food is just sitting, ready to come up! Yuck! I am sooo afraid to vomit tho!

I'm still on pureed but I'm not complaining lol I'm struggling with the Protein Shakes tho I think I need something different. But at least with two shakes a day I'm taking in 50g of protein lol plus I'm never hungry so that helps a lot.
