Today's topic is a food question... What if any foods give you adverse reactions and what are the reactions? Lea

I have no adverse reactions to any food. The only reaction i have is hiccups when i'm full LOL. Krissy

Last weekend, my sister and I went to Las Vegas (for fun, this time). On the way out of town on Sunday, we stopped to get some drinks for the road, and I got a coffee drin****d and blended. It was not my normal drink, and it obviously had lots of sugars in it - and about 20 miles later, I started talking nonsense. I repeated myself over and over - it was very much like when I get ill and can't concentrate. A few minutes later, I basically passed out. My sister said she thought I was sleeping (I'm known for that on long drives). I "slept" for more than two hours, and when I woke, I was fine, but thirsty. It's happened before with sugars, but never to that extent.

I have not had any really bad reactions... umm wait.. When I ate KFC.. omg the grease almost killed me,, sick.. sick and pains.. never will eat that again...

Well, I FERVENTLY wish I dumped on high-sugar or high-fat foods; however, I do not. If I eat A LOT of really sugary junk at one time, I do feel a little queazy but not enough to deter me permanently. The only thing that has given me slightly more significant problems is the premium full-fat specialty ice creams. Had it pretty bad twice from that, so if I indulge in it at all (extremely infrequently), I have just a couple bites. I truly LONG FOR the first 1 1/2 yrs. post-op when I did not eat any junk--I feared that I would dump AND I also feared that I WOULD NOT! Jo

pasta = gas lol Cheers!

BREAD...at a year out, and still can't eat bread....but that's alright because it used to be one of my biggest downfalls..

Sugar doesn't agree with me. It makes me extremely dizzy and will even cause me to throw up. I usually feel bad for a couple of hours. But I think this is a good thing! It makes me avoid it at all costs! Christy

I dumped when I ate two sugar-free Russell Stover chocolates. Is that food? lol Jules

Onions with tuna pepper corn pork Chili & Frito chips ( I dump ) I can't eat chicken everytime I try it I taste raw chicken ( I know it's all in my mind ) and makes me sick.
