I wasn't trying to judge others. I was trying to share. On that note, I will no longer participate here. This was the first and last time on this site. Thank you for your opinion and I wish you the best.
Just need to clarify above and not trying to take away from your weight loss accomplishments but I do try to be sensitive having severe hypothyroidism too, that I did have major regain issues prior to reversal to meds even though I ate very little and what I could eat I threw up and I threw up dozens of times a day whether I ate or drank anything.
I also had bad issues with reactive hypoglycemia and orthostatic pulmonary HYPOtension and never had prior to rny or ever since any morbidities attributed to Obesity.
Point I felt I need to clear up on, is that wls peeps can try as hard as possible to lose weight and their efforts depending on their own unique medical history might make that harder to lose it all or easier to gain it back.
Kind of goes along the lines, don't judge others as you have no idea what they've been thru and what is not in the realm of their control.
peace...
I think your weight loss speaks for itself and imnsho nothing would shock me as far as your dumping issues.
I wish people would be mindful they can ONLY speak for their own experience and they have no right to second guess when someone on here says something.
Just keep sharing your truth, trust me given the fact I'm a medical unicorn, it might help someone along the same lines when it comes to rare complications.

We Can Do Hard Things
You're 110 percent right.
Unfortunately peeple hang onto what they " like " and crave ( usually fats) .
Personally Im extremely happy not to have to think about food.
My constant every hour every day desires for excess food are truly over with.
Now I need to get rid of the excess skin and empty ( constantly hungry) fat cells .
Thanks for another study proving my point.
"They find that consumption of a high-fat diet and high intakes of saturated fat are associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. However, this association disappears when they adjust for BMI."
Obesity results in Type 2 diabetes. And simple carbs -- junk food -- results in obesity. People aren't becoming obese on red meat and more than they are on carrots.

No one is advocating substituting carbs for fat. That's ludicrous.
