The Dumping Syndrome

[cangudz 27]

As I approached a year after my sleeve, I met goal at 6 months out, my old habits DID start to come back! However, the last week I've been back on track and I'm still dumping or everything good or bad just goes straight through me.....LITERALLY every day, every thing.

I've gained 5 lbs and it's not coming back off easy at all. I'm afraid I've gone too far, I'm not sure how to stop this from happening.

Anyone experience this? Any suggestions?

I thought dumping did not occur with the sleeve?

I am a dumper too, although I don't have as much of an issue with food coming out the number two side and more that it comes right back out my mouth. If you're eating all healthy food, it's odd that you are having an issue with dumping. I find that the true dumping I experience only happens with sugar and sometimes fats, whereas the puking version, which doesn't usually include the increased heart rate, flushed skin, and hot flashes, happens when I either eat too much too quickly or I eat something that has been fried in some way.

If you have only been eating really healthy for a few days, maybe this is just your system cleaning you out. Kind of like when you go on a juice diet or a really healthy low carb diet and whoosh, you spend half the day in the bathroom until your body has cleaned out all the junk. If though it continues to persist, I would let your doctor know and ask his thoughts.

Found out my acid reflux medicating causes chronic diarrhea, I stopped taking it and my dumping signs ended.
