Have you dumped yet?

I read about people dumping all the time. What excally happens when you do that? I have vomitted... yuck and I have had an "ouchy pouchy" where I had 2 lie down for a couple of hours. Think that is kinda dumping? I'm starting to think maybe it isn't and I have just been lucky so far. I remember one person wrote.. if you dumped you would know it. So.. I guess I haven't! Hope all my 11-2005 brothers and sisters are doing awesome! I hit -49 pounds today just one away from the big 50, I can't wait! Have a good nite! Kim

I am glad you asked that question I have wondered the same thing. I was told that when you eat to much surgar it makes you go to the restroom, but I have not experienced it yet either. congrats on the 49lbs I am at 32 and already feel like a new person Ree

At -32 I bet you look like a new person! Way 2 go Kim

I've had the icky tummy feeling too, but did not vomit thankfully. I have also had a few minutes of nausea/sweating/dizziness the first time I had strawberries in a shake. I was lucky, that started after the second sip so I stopped drinking immediately. Other than that I've been lucky and doing ok. (crossing fingers and toes now) Christine

Ya know what Christine... I bet if you would have drank more of that shake you would have dumped for sure. You were smart to stop! Kim

I dumped from flinstones vitamins when I first got out of the hospital. I had to switch to sugarfree powerpuff girls. HAHA But since I stopped taking those I havent had any problems. I get the neausea/vomiting/yucky tummy feeling but no more dumping! yay to that! I'm down 45.5 lbs in 7 weeks and no more dumping!

Wow! 45.5 in seven weeks... amazing job! Way 2 go! Kim

At 4 weeks out on Christmas, I had samples of lots of pies, cookies, candies etc.They went down (and stayed down) just fine. i've also had a few chocolate covered pretzels with no ill side effects. The ONLY two times i've ed, was from meatloaf and peanuts. I wish I did dump, as it'd make me detest the thought of eating sweets.

It is funny how we are all so different. For me, hamburger is the one red meat I can handle. But steak, roast, etc... comes right back up within minutes. Thank god for chicken! Kim

I can handle red meats too , but chicken makes me everytime. I do have a pouch that hurts alot. Usually after just two bites of anything. I don't think I have dumped. Unfortunately I can eat a bite or two of sweets and feel fine. Katrina
