Congrats to all the 100 pound losers this week! That's fantastic!! It has been a few weeks since I posted here... I had exploratory laparoscopy mid-Feburary to take care of some adhesions and a hernia from the original bypass. Went well and recovery was easy. I'm down about 4 pounds since surgery (2/18).
Highest 300
DOS 285
current 176
goal 160
Who would have ever thought I could say, 'Yeah, I'd like to lose 16 pounds!' I used to secretly curse out other women when they would say things like that!!

So you just cleaned out the plumbing 
Congrats on the 4 lbs!
You needed that little boost.
For the record I can't eat apples. They give me a stomach ache but no dumping like you had. I've never done that...yet.

One of my favorite snacks is reduced fat peanut butter. On Friday I was snacking on an apple, (fruit is very touch-and-go with me, but I learned that I can tolerate apples)
So I got the bright idea to add the peanut butter to the apple.....
Oh. My. Gawd. I dumped. First the cramping, then the vomitting, then a night of diarrhea. When I woke up in the morning, I was down four pounds and It's stayed off since.

It's my understanding that we don't malabsorb *all* calories, just the ones in fat. Initially you malabsorb around 30% (depends on the length of your roux limb, that's an average-- longer bypasses will malabsorb more) and it decreases over time.
