Dumping my butt off...

Yep. 3.5 years out and dumping like I haven't in a couple years.

We went to Lisa's birthday celebration tonight. It was a restaurant we'd never been to. I ordered spinach salad and sausage and chicken gumbo. The spinach salad had candied pecans and green apples. I ordered it with balsamic vinaigrette dressing. The dressing had sugar in it and I didn't I realize it.  Added to the bit of the pecans and apples I ate, I went into a full dump. It's been a miserable few hours.

And for how miserable I am, I hadn't dumped in so long, I kinda forgot that it would still happen if I ate the wrong thing. I'm kind of relieved it snuck up on me.

I hate surprises, hope you feel better soon.  B****he salad sounds devine to bad it had so much sugar.

It was devine. I'm actually a little sad that I will not ever eat it again.

When it became apparent that I was dumping, Michael tasted the dressing and determined it was likely what pushed me over the edge. I had commented when I first started eating that the dressing wasn't as tangy as I was expecting. I just didn't realize they'd used sugar to alter the flavor.

I order EVERYthing on the side - dressing, sauces, even the butter and sour cream for potatoes, I dump way to much still at 3 yr out - don't know if you saw but my goal tim's last week home was to not dump - that and get my vits was my whole thing for my nutition and eating all week LOL

sure u r better this` morning - now get your butt up and get to painting :)

I've never actually dumped.  Sometimes I wish I did for the deterent factor but then I read about how sick you guys get and I'm thankful I don't.  Sorry you're so puney, get to feeling better cuz from what I hear, you gots lots of painting waiting for you, lol.

JENNIFER--hope you got home before the worst of it hit...I, too still dump, and am THANKFUL...as I read your post I was thining of ways to "alter" that salad cuz it sounded SO good! But..the dressing was probably what MADE it so good, and that's the part that probably made you dump...so...nah....ain't worth it!!

I've never dumped. I wish I did, it would be easier to resist stuff that's not good for me.

Sorry you got blindsided by the dressing.
