Thanks guys!!!
It helps to know I am not alone!!! I'm sure glad all I do is get sleepy!
I never over do it with sweets, I've just had a bite or 2 now and then, but I guess I just had to many carbs at that meal!
Thanks for your responses!!
Best wishes to all of you!!

Hi LaDena! Yep, that sounds like dumping. Lucky you for just getting sleepy. If I eat too many sweets, I get the sweats and diarrhea, yuck! Not a fun time, so I try to avoid a lot of sugar. Welcome, to our forum! Your WL Buddy, Jane 362/232
Topic: RE: Throwing Up?
Oh boy, Karen! Just last week, I ate some corn-on-the-cob for the first time since my surgery. CORN-ON-THE-COB is a very bad thing! I usually take a small bite of a food that I haven't tried since before the surgery, but silly me ate the whole piece. I was in agony until it all came up. I was in pain for an hour. It lodged itself in my pouch. So, for me, I will never eat corn-on-the-cob, again. It's not worth the agony. And it has no nutritional value, that I need. I agree with the others, I think that it's just our tool at work. I like knowing that it's going to be there when I need it. And boy did I need it last week! lol Jane

Hi Karen,
I also throw up, though rarely now, if I'm distracted and don't chew properly or swallow to fast.

Hi LaDena,
This happens to me also when I eat too much sugar or over do it. It used to happen alot more in the begining but not as much now. I get really lazy and lay down for about 15-20 min and then Im fine again. I thought I was the only one experiencing this. Glad to hear I'm not the only one. lol. Anyway, I havent experenced it as much lately, maybe I learned my lesson! Take care!

Hi LaDena, Love your profile page! I try not to do the real sweet thing at all, I do sugar free pudding and popsicles and they satisfy me just fine. But on Mother's Day someone offered me a white chocolate covered strawberry. Can you say YUM!! So I decided to have it thinking, it is just a little white chocolate. When it hit my pouch I knew I was in for it. I got the feverish feeling and wanted to
, so I had to lay down for 30 minutes until it subsided. I know my pouch is definetly working for the good of my health. Because I hate that feeling so I will stay away from those things as much as possible. Blessings to you on your journey.

Hello LaDena
If I eat something I'm not supposed to like sugar,I first get sick
second I feel warm all over like I'm having a really bad hot flash
,Third sick again
,fourth pass out
for like 3-4 hrs and when I wake I feel as if I have a hangover.

Topic: Question about Dumping......
Hello October Buddies....
This is my first post!!
I just have a question! Do any of you get sleepy when you eat something you shouldn't.......to much sugar...or carbs?????
I ate a whole order of potato locos from Taco Mayo plus a taco the other day and over did it big time. I was miserable and then felt so sleepy, I had to go lay down and slept for about 15 min. then I was fine. This is the only symptom I had. I have heard from a few others that it is a symptom of dumping...........I would like to hear your experiences.
Thanks,
LaDena

Good Morning
Karen I still throw up it is rare... but still do. I just think of it as my tool still working with me. I used to think you can not over indulge but as time progresses I find myself eating more. It is just a reminder when I do eat too much or not chew enough whatever it may be that my tool still works.
