i dumped for the first time`

yesterday was the first time i ever dumped. i think it was caused from eating too fast and not chewing enough. yuck it was awful. i threw up three times then went to sleep. at least it was later in the evening and i was at home. i really felt like crap!!! i don't want that to happen again. i was lucky for nearly 1 1/2 months. i knew my luck would run out sometime.

I've also been lucky so far. No dumping but have yacked 3 times. Once from a calcium tablet getting stuck (I switched to chewables) once from a piece of chil meat getting stuck ( I am really careful about chewing now)and once from eating a little toooo much (learning it pas to measure). Once it comes up, I feel better. Good luck on avoiding problems in the future. CJ

I have thrown up a handful of times, mostly because I ate or drank too fast, and once because I ate too much. Talk about being miserable! I haven't actually dumped yet, but I have become lightheaded and crappy feeling because I ate something with sugar in it. I figure if I would truly dump, I'd have heart palpitations and all that other bad stuff with it. I pretty much stay away from foods with added sugars, especially because I know that if two bites will make me lightheaded, I'm going to feel terrible if I eat four bites.

I have had my share of throwing up and foaming, but haven't dumped yet. I am terrified of eating anything with sugar in it because I am so afraid of dumping - I"ve heard it feels like you're dying!! Nancy

I have thrown up twice, both times I think I ate too fast because I felt too hungry. I have not had the dumping syndrome yet, and live in fear that I will unknowingly eat something that will make it happen. Jules
