HI ALL THIS IS MY FIRST TIME ON THIS BOARD.I HAD LAP RNY 8/11/04 AND HAVE LOST 125 POUNDS. I DON'T WANT TO OR NEED TO LOSE ANY MORE WEIGHT.I HAVE DUMPING WITH LOTS OF FOODS,SUCH AS PEANUT BUTTER,CHEESE,MILK,FRUITS,FRIED FOODS.I CAN TOLERATE THE CHEESE AND PEANUT BUTTER AS LONG AS IT IS IN SMALL AMOUNTS. I HAVE TRIED INCREASING THE NUMBER OF MEALS DAILY,BUT MOST DAYS I HAVE AT LEAST 2, SOMETIMES 3 BOWEL MOVEMENTS.I DON'T THINK THE FOOD STAYS IN LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO ABSORB WHAT I NEED. THANKS ROSA

You should talk to your surgeon, in some cases where a person is not absorbing enough calories, they can give you pancreatic enzymes which will help you absorb more calories from the food you eat...hope that helps. Good luck Chi-Chi

I'm in the same boat Rosa. I lost the 100 I needed to lose, now I'm down another 3 (in a week). My husband has commented that my face is starting to look drawn. I can't afford to lose much more.
