Wow, I didn't realize that Splenda makes regular people dump! Crazy.

Congrats on your upcoming surgery, btw!  A week and a day away!

I choose to have small amounts of unrefined sugar rather than chemically based sweeteners. Not having RNY means I dont ave dumping issues but then neither do a lot if those with RnY. 

Highest 290, Banded - 248   Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006.  Regain of 28lbs 2013-14.  ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,

Ask Dr. about agave syrup. I actually like the taste and you only need a drop.

I have the exact same problem!  I talked to my NUT about it last week and she looked it up.  She suggested I could have 3-4 tsp of sugar a day.  To me that seems plenty because I only really add it to either tea or to sweeten my greek yogurt.  

Ask your nutritionist :)
