I know we don't dump but?



Recommended Posts

I did a stupid thing tonight and paid the price. I ate my dinner too fast and I also ate too much. About 40 minutes later I began to get bad stomach cramps that had me running to the bathroom. :omg: I was sweating, dizzy and felt horrible. I felt like I was going to vomit, but it came out the other end instead. This is the first time this has happened and you can bet I got the message! I guess it's good that I learned this lesson before my first fill because if it can happen now I'm guessing it could happen that much easier once I'm more restricted. I know that pbing & vomiting are hazards if you aren't diligent, but I hadn't heard about sweating/dizziness and feeling like you might die (or wish you would). Has anyone else experienced this?

Nope but you should check on the general thread.

If it was anything like "dumping" I'm thinking it was unrelated to what you ate "in the moment".

If the pain was up high, then I would think that you golfballed, then it passed threw.

If the pain was low, then I would say, totally NOT band related.

Golfballed is when you eat too much or too quickly or both. You get this pain in your chest like the feeling of a golfball stuck in there. It is a horrible pain, usually accompanied with the feeling of vomiting. It will either pass threw in time or you will throw up.

Hope that helps!

What is "golfballed"?

I thought it was what you were called when you ruined a nice walk in a beautiful feild... :)"You sure Golfballed that hike!"

or

when you feel like you were wacked around the course with tools ill equipted for the job...:)"After last night's party, I felt Golfballed this morning!"

But alas I am not yet Banded and I am sure that when I am I will learn what "the 'flaming golf ball from hell' scenario":second: (as JACk says) truely means...:fear:

Heaven Forbid!!! :pray:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
