That didn't take long. However, I will say again what I tried to post to Carmelita's comment(s) that VSGers don't dump:

According to posts by VSGers on their forum, a lot of them DO, which I never knew. Never needed to know, for that matter, but now I'm glad that I know.

Did a search for "VSG" and "dumping":

www.obesityhelp.com/search/action,search_oh/

and in one discussion, the OP admits that she, herself, has.

 Holy crap! I DUMPED and  I have/had GB problems starting at  2 YRS OUT!!  I refuse GB surgery...stoopid I know! its a PITA preventin attacks.

My VSG surgeon does NOT remove em UNLESS he HAS TO.  At surgery...didn't have to! Never placed on prophayllactic actigal/ursodiol..nor did I take digestive enzymes (bile acids) ..nor did I have ROUTINE HIDA scan PRE-VSG to check my GB functioning.  

I was pissed last year when I started havin problems! but MAYBE my GALLBLADDER was SHOT and THAT'S WHY I DUMPED on Cambells 98% FAT-FREE protein based soup, at  ~4 months post op!  that 2% FAT in it...MESSED ME UP

Post op I read here...FULL FATS, HI PROTEIN  I was eatin FULL FATS  too! ughh! Who knows!

but interesting you brought up GALL BLADDER ISSUES...COULD BE BEHIND DUMPING in VSG...I sure wonder if this is true! 

I WONDER IF....peeps W/O GALLBLADDERS ...DUMP?  wow very interestin...

DSrs have their gallbladders taken out at time of surgery...I may go do a poll over there.

 I had no idea that it was an issue at ALL for VSGers. I did learn something new about the procedure. I guess I thought that with the majority of the stomach removed, there would be less acid produced and causing issues, but apparently not.

 Blocks me, then unblocks me so she can read my posts, then blocks again. What a tool. Or, is it, a fool? Doesn't really matter.
