Does anyone have the problem of being able to eat anything. I'm almost 2 moths post-op and haven't had any problems. This scares me because it gives less restraint on eating. I've never had dumping or vomiting. And what does a full feeling feel like. I eat 3-3oz meals a day sometimes shamfully I've had pizza almost a full size (not the crust though). Stacey -44

Your weight loss is good, so don't worry about it! Sounds like a good deal to me. 3 oz is not an unlimited amount of food. Joy -35 lbs

Oh my gosh... you are my wls twin! LOL!!! Yes I am exactly like you I can tolerate everything pretty much...and the full feeling I get it but its subtle anymore. I even tried like 4-5 sips of my sons milkshake and nothing I was hoping it would "clean me out!" but nothing. well.. I felt a bit nauseous but that went away. Had a spoon of regular ice cream yesterday and nothing. felt fine. Its scary isnt it? We will really have to be careful of those carbs! Darn the luck! I havent lost anything in 11 days! I am also down 44 pounds and STUCK! I am really watching my carbs from now on. Keep me posted on how you do!!! Best Wishes!!! Elizabeth M -44lbs and more to go!!!!

Well, maybe you've never really tested the waters on what would make you dump. THAT ISN'T ME URGING YOU TO DO SO THOUGH! I just mean that maybe you won't dump unless you have a sugary drink or something washes through your pouch too quickly and hits your colon with a vengence. I typically don't dump anymore at all, and at first it was mostly because I would eat too much and not realize it. I couldn't feel the fullness until I was sick. Now I have a better handle on it and I can feel it more, so I rarely dump. You are doing good monitoring your eating so I wouldn't get overly concerned with it. You sound like you are being cautious for the most part, and that is good. Pizza without the crust is no big deal. Dina

I can eat anything and have thought that maybe I didn't have surgery. I even ate a hot pocket yesterday for lunch. I haven't been ill nor have I vomited. I also have not tried to eat more than a bite or two of any sweets. But I am losing and happy to be doing so. Louise -28 at 6 1/2 weeks post op.
