Warning*** 1st dump 5 days post-op

Hi All,

I can't believe I just had my first dump very mild BUT I KNEW IT.

Warning... about a WW product.. their water MIX.INS
this one was peach iced tea with 20oz of water.

I was a bit tired of my diluted lemon propel and water so I looked in my drawer and had some of this WW stuff.

OM did this answer a lot of ???'s.. I will dump. And READ ..ingredients. Nut Facts never showed sugar , 0 fat, sodium, carb., protein. Plus on front of box said Sugar Free...... LIE!!!!!

Since that is the only thing I changed today. I reread the label and what a surprise.

Ingredients:

1st one... Maltodextrin ( from corn) This is corn syrup.
4th one.. Scuralose (sweetner) This is friut sugar.

So FYI .. I understand .... DUMP.. I understand WHY I did not lose on WW.. following all their rules.. blindsided by extra sugar.

Off to drink some Healthy WATER!!!!!

Hi!  It is so great to hear from you I have been thinking and praying for you!  I am sorry you had that bad incident with the WW peach iced tea, I have stuck to either Crystal Light, Propel or the Lipton Iced tea since they are all sugar free.  I will definately stay away from WW stuff since the last thing of theirs that I looked at was loaded with sugar.  Something you may want to keep in mind is that you may have had a reaction to the sugar alcohol in the product.  I know I have read somewhere that that can cause people to get sick, but don't know too much else.  Hope you feel better and are enjoying your water!

OH MJ!!!  Wow - I think you set a record for dumping sooner than anyone else I know!  What a bummer!  At least you knew what it was - I remember the first two days I went back to work and I had a CIB on my way to work.  By the time I got there my heart was racing and I was sweating and felt horrible.  I thought I was having an anxiety attack only to realize on day 2 that it was dumping.  Well, the good thing is - you dump!  The bad thing is - you dump!  Definitely use it to your advantage! Good luck! XOXOXOX

Yep, that's a sneaky one.  Guess WW wanted everyone to think it was totally sugar free, and we all know there are few things that are totally sugar free.

It is so good to be back to the boards. I missed you all and the great info you have. Thanks for the info on the sugars. What a surprise I am really going to take this slow and easy wins the knowledge race.

Oh I missed the kicks and giggles Thanks LOL

OMG MJ! I feel bad...but like Tracy said at least you know you are going to dump, which is a saving grace in my eyes, I haven't yet, and I have had "real" sugar but not in excess, according to those WW ingredients, I would have never guessed you would dump.

FYI - Sucralose is not fruit sugar, it is another name for Splenda.  :-)

Dumping sooooo totally sucks!!!!  And so close to surgery is really painful!!!  But now you know how it feels and you'll tread lightly so it does not happen again!!!  Glad that is over with for you!! XXOO

Oh MJ, I'm so sorry to hear that you went through that so soon after surgery.  I don't think I dump, if I do, it's not bad for me and I've had cookies before.  Kind of wish I did dump.

Oh man... a day 5 dump?  Well - it's part of the tool, so YAY MJ!!!   YOU DUMP!!!  Great to know your tool works, right?  I wish I dumped!  I really haven't so far.  At least my pouch won't let me get away with eating too much or too fast...  But I have to admit, the trailer trash in me likes to talk about "dumping".  It just sounds funny... LOVE YOU, my sweet little friend!!!
