Bufflehead 6,358 Posted October 24, 2013 That is very interesting, thanks! I haven't tried anything sweet since surgery, but I guess when I get to that I should "practice" at home before trying anything sweet in public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganChic 3,262 Posted October 24, 2013 No dumping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danilax 56 Posted October 24, 2013 Diet Pepsi, omg. Carbonation is a problem in general with the sleeve, but it's the aspartame that makes me have to run to the bathroom within 2 sips and leaves me messed up for hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted October 24, 2013 I have avoided the sweets for this very reason so I am dump free so far! I wander if people eat a lot of carbs when they convert to sugar if this can cause dumping also or if it later in digestion that the sugar occurs and nothing happens.

Kattastic 114 Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) I am embarrassed to admit it but it happened to me today. It's my 2nd day back at work. I'm 15 days post op. I have been eating egg salad (1 egg at a time) for Breakfast on soft foods and haven't had any problems until today. I was pretty busy and bc egg salad is familiar to me and I haven't had any complications, I became complacent and ate it quickly. Usually it takes me 20-40 min to eat a tiny meal. Almost immediately I felt sick and uncomfortable. An hour later I had to run to the bathroom! Yuck! So it's not just sweets that can cause it. Be careful how fast you eat! Lesson learned!
