LESSON LEARNED... very first Dump



Recommended Posts

Today, I got sick as a dog. I had my first experience with DUMPING. I had 4 HUGE episodes of diarrhea, and threw up once as well.

The lesson? Don't eat Salmon patties. Seriously. Damn things may taste good, but they are sooo not worth it.

That sure as heck sounds like dumping syndrome alright, but salmon patties?! Man, that sucks. I've not eaten one of those since I was forced to as a kid. What is in them that caused it do you think? I honestly have no clue how the are made.

Also, are you a bypass or sleeve patient?

I think they are frequently fried. Maybe that was the problem?

I think it was because I used actual oil to fry them instead of just spraying the pan. It amounted in too much oil..

I won't be doing THAT again. ACK!

Ah, it was the added fat! I can completely empathize with you. Now I am thinking I need to give salmon patties a try. We have an air fryer that is probably my most used kitchen toy. "Fried" fish in that thing is fantastic.

I figure if I had just used the spray on oil, that wouldn't have happened... lol. Oh well, lesson learned. PAINFULLY.

HAHAHA

Man I have never dumped from fat. I think I would die, lol. Fat is my life.

Although the more stories I read, the more I think it is excessive calories hitting the intestines too fast, than the content of the food. I don't dump but I can make myself sick if I eat something that hits my intestines too fast.

@ShilohD How far out are you?

I'm at 7 weeks. 45 lbs lost, and honestly, this was the first time this has happened. Nothing I've eaten thus far has done this to me up mail now.

You kind of have to pace yourself for introducing new foods. You are going from bland foods with barely any Protein, fat or sugar, to regularish foods. You have to kinda chill at least until 3 months, then you can get more adventurous

I've tolerated everything well up to this point. And I WAS cautious. I mean, the patty was only 2.5 oz. And I only had the one. OMG! I WOULD HATE to imagine how it would have turned out if I had eaten a. Second one. GOOD GRIEF!

But, yes... I hear you. I shouldn't have done anything fried
STUPID MOVE ON MY PART

It is a learning process, everyone learns what they can tolerate by trial and error and it changes over time. Just wait till 3 months and try again.

I eat low carb fried fish once a week or 2 times a month. So I am not judging you on frying at all. I fry stuff all the time.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
