i hear I'm one in a million, but peanut butter just doesn't work for me in amounts bigger than a baby spoon.  I haven't tried the all-natural no sugar added yet, but plain old Jiff is killing me.

I cannot eat reheated red meat well.

when I reheat chicken or turkey I poke it with a fork a few times, drip some water on top and cover it with a damp paper towel in the microwave - this does a great job at restoring moisture.

i ate too close to water drinking, which brought the food back up in a hurry.  I also overate some baked potato and that came back up.

The good news is that for me at least, when I have to vomit due to overfilled pouch it is effortless, painless and sort of a non-event.  I certainly don't want to do anything to cause vomiting, but it's not a terrible punishment for a simple mistake.

Read my blog, BARIATHLETE   I run because I can.

Thank God, No.  OOOOHHH, wait...YES!  I dumped off of eggs!  That was the WORST THING EVER! I can handle a hard boiled egg but a scrambled egg with cheese makes me VERY sick.  Weird.  I have to say that Im one of the lucky ones that not too much bothers me and goes down pretty well.  I stick to my sugarfree, low cal, low card lifestyle so I havent really tried any thing outside of that and I dont plan too...

When they gave me a list of the most common food types that cause dumping.... I AVOID it like a snack cake (LOL)!
