I'd eat some humble pie if I weren't so sick!!!

Ok...so I am 5 months out, losing at a great pace... and I think I have the hang of this WLS eating thing down pretty good, right? WRONG!! The past couple of weeks, I have been struggling with poor choices... and I have been feeling pretty invincible...HA!! I got it in my head that I could eat some caramel corn (I know, I know!) ....Well, I COULD...but then, I got kinda nauseous....I went and laid down, but then my stomach hurt soooo bad I couldn't even lay down... I was walking around WANTING to lay down, but my tummy was physically hurting so bad....all I could think about was Dr. Richard telling me that if I ever dumped, that I would be in such pain, I would be sure I was going to die... and by the time the ambulance arrived, I would be fine... Well, I was walking around here, crying, wondering what I had done to myself...when FINALLY...THANKFULLY... I got ill, and relieved my poor tummy of the evilness that I had consumed! That is actually the FIRST time I have gotten sick from a poor choice. OH MY GOSH!!! The only reason I share this with you, is I had, at this point, come to the conclusion that it seemed I was going to be able to eat ANYTHING in moderation...(That frankly scared me..as I was worried about self control.....) All you folks that have just recently had surgery, and have commented about how you don't seem to feel full, or things you though would bother you didn't... I'm here to tell you I was the same way...You just don't know what's gonna git ya!! Well....I have completed "HUMBLE PIE 101" and still don't feel so great....You can be SURE my pouch has reminded me WHO is BOSS and I will NEVER eat caramel corn or ANYTHING else I shouldn't again!!! Humbly yours.... Tami

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) I'm happy that it's all over. I feel so bad for you! , dumping is horrible I am happy that you're STRONG! I know you will suceed in a healthy life! God Bless, Tiffany.

Hey friend, I am glad you are okay. I haven't dumped yet and pray I never do. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope you feel 100% again soon. IF you need me for anything, let me know. Hugs, Debra =^..^=

I hope you are feeling better now!!! It's good to know that there is always the possibility to dump...sorry it happened to you! Thanks for the warning! Hugs, Becky

Oh Tami, My heart goes out to you, I have dumped from making poor choice of foods, Girl when I tell you I know how you feel believe me I know how you feel. Glad to hear that you are feeling better. Ms.Thang

Man i am going to start to watch what i am eating i have made a few poor choices this week/weekend ....and i have not gottin that sick just alittle not right ..but man it is nice to know that there still is that chance ....i am going to be careful now Laura

I certainly understand what it is to "not feel good" after eating. I get that quite often - only mine isn't beacuse of not eating the right things - mine just kinda happens. I'm sorry you've not been feeling well...unfortunately it's your body reminding you that you've done this for the BEST for you..... Sometimes we all need the kick in the pants! (Just make sure the pants don't slide off with you getting so thin!!!!) Let me know if you need anything hun!!!!
