6 weeks out+baby back ribs=DUMP



Recommended Posts

Wow. So I'm 6 weeks out and grilled some killer baby back ribs thinking that because they are soft I would be okay... WRONG. Not more than 5 bites into it I start feeling sick. Then the terrible pain starts. So I'm outside waiting for the inevitable and here it comes. Barfed and dry heaved a few times and then proceeded to go back inside and barf another 3 times. I thought I was in the clear from dumping but apparently not so be careful and once it happens you will pray it never happens again LoL.

of dry meat? eaten too fast and not chewed enough? absolutely. it almost happened to me after two bites of day sausage yesterday. i'm about the same post-op as you.

i mean, did you get faint/sweaty/shaky/lightheaded/confused? if so, did that take an hour or more to go away? dumping CAN result in vomiting, but it's more of a system failure due to extremes in blood sugar. it's not a plumbing issue with esophageal and pouch pain.

was the vomit coated in lots of drooly slimy stuff?

Yeah LoL, I wasn't faint or anything like that but I had the pouch pain and the drooly slimy stuff. The vomiting and pain was off and on for about an hour.

That's not dumping syndrome but it's painful nonetheless. Baby back ribs seem like something to eat after a year, not now.

Vomiting sucks it can happen from eating too quick too fast too much...sucks when it happens - worst is when it's both ends! Vomiting on toilet good visual lol

Dumping normally happens when eating too high sugar or liquids with meals. But gastric distress either vomiting or dumping generally subsides after the first year.

The reason it subsides after a year is because by then you're pretty well trained. That's a good thing! Still, after 15 years, I will occasionally dump or stop up. It only serves to remind me of being aware. Sure it's not nice at all, but it IS effective!

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
