SUGAR!

[pdallariva 57]

My surgery was 06/2016 and have lost 110lbs. I feel great now that I have been through all the rough patches! There is one thing that I can't figure out though. I know we are supposed to keep sugar to a minimum intake however when I do take in sugar (more then allowed) I feel weak, sweaty, and nauseated. Does this happen to anyone else and does anyone else have the same?

YES! What you are experiencing is a type of dumping syndrome. Its your bodies way of saying you shouldn't have eaten that. I know that I cannot take in more than 6 grams of sugar at a time or I'll get super sick with all of the symptoms you've listed. Try to watch that sugar intake because your body can't handle it now.

Good luck!

I agree with others, you are dumping. I avoid sugar entirely. The only substantial sugar I consume is from blueberries and I limit those to 1/2 cup per serving.

You can also dump from eating or drinking too fast, so watch that as well. (I'm assuming you had rny)

What about OJ? It's the only thing I can drink and keep down at the moment. Water makes me nauseous, though I am still drinking it.

Yes I had rny. I love juices so what I do is use about 90% Water and 10% juice depending how strong the juice is. Apple juice works really well with me. Thanks for all the replies. I rely on all of you out there for support. This site has help me so much.
