I am 4 months out now and doing great but the other day at lunch I ate a habenero from my garden. I have been ok with hot things so far and this pepper was a 5 on a scale of 10. I ate it in small bites with some turkey and veggies and all of a sudden I was going thru some big time changes. Dizzy, profuse sweating. weakness and stomach ache. It lasted for about 20 minutes and went away. Anybody ever it a hot pepper and have this happen?

I've been eating alot of hot stuff since WLS and didn't have a problem until i ate a pepper that was way hotter than i am ised to. I also experianced some of the same things you mentioned. I still eat the hot stuff, i just avoid the super heat.

None here. I’m prone to eat a lot of jalapeno peppers. Raw, and canned. No problems. Even the Thai Chili’s don’t cause a problem for me, And I dump on the slightest bit of sugar, So my system is pretty finicky. Perhaps something about the heat hitting your intestines too soon Could start a reaction with extra fluid rushing to the irritation site? Hope you find your threshold with out going over too often.

I'm 7 months out and eat hot peppers regularly with no difficulty.

I think turkey would make me dump before the peppers!  Yuk!!  I hate turkey cold-cuts!

I eat a lot of jalapenos with no problems.... they seem to burn more going out than in, though.  I am sure that a habernero would be too hot for me, WLS or no.
