How many grams of sugar can you tolerate? I can go up to about 9 or 10 grams and I think that seems like alot. Not that I mind because I really feel like I can eat anything, including bread (hoagies too!!). Of course I don't eat it much of it or often. I am down 100 punds and would like to stop soon.Maybe 10 more but that is it really. Any advice on how to stop?

Our nurse says to not eat foods with more than 5 grams of sugar per serving, so I don't know how that fits in with your question. I think I can generally handle a bit more if it is in a protein bar, but I try to keep within the guidelines. Sally

Ellen; I can tolerate up to 15g of sugar at an eating occassion. I don't push that limit very often, but when I do, my pouch lets me know that it's not going to cooperate. If you're concerned with how to slow or stop your losing, make an appointment with your nutritionist. They can best advise you on how to stop losing in the most healthy way. Blessings, Jennifer

Well the advice from my doctor has always been 15 grams or less you will be ok. Between 15 and 30 depends on the individual person, anything of 30 and above is a guarantee dump. I can eat more sugar during my period than when I am not on it. It is weird I know but that is the way it goes. Also I dump more on fat than I do sugar. I also can eat almost anything. BUt it you get that sleepy feeling after you eat that is dumping also it is just very mild so watch for the signs. Believe me I can eat almost any foods as long as the fat content isnt high. Amy

I was told no more than 2 grams per serving...unless it's a natural sugar. I stick with this guideline because I'm more afraid of tolerating sugar than I am dumping (which I technically haven't done "full throttle" yet...just the sleepies or tummyache).
