In my case and I hate to tell you, I could eat what I wanted when I wanted...During pregnancy and afterwards.  I am pretty sure I didn't dump before getting pregnant either.  I know there were sometimes that I felt a bit tired after eating something I shouldn't.  But I never had other dumping symptoms.  This time around after the baby is born I am going to be more dilligent about eating right and losing all the extra weight. 

I had gained about 20 pounds before finding out I was pregnant...from getting back into my old habits.  So, getting back on track after the baby is born!

take care,
Bambi

I asked this question too before and a lot of people said they went back to dumping... Lucky for me my dumping Is just a uncomfortable feeling for like an hour in my belly... So I don't go over 20g sugar per sitting if I want something sweet and I don't get sick. Plus I am sure I could do more but I don't push my limits and then in the back of my head I think I will get sick even if I don't so it helps me keep my mind on eating healthy still... Which is why I am still losing a lot...idk though... :)

I was never a dumper even before pregnancy.  When pregnant I ate whatever I could get my hands on and ALOT of it.  But only gained 2 pounds.  Everyone told me that after the baby my tightness would come back to be honest it hasn't.  I can eat wayyy too much.

I am pregnant now and I have noticed that I too can eat more carbs and sugar now. I never could eat this stuff before but now I can.  It is hard. If will take maybe one mini reese peanut butter cup and that is my sugar (that is hard to do) I will eat 1/2 bagel with the insides taken out.  I could never do any of this before I got prenant. I know where you are coming from.  My surgeon said just to try to make the best choices and everything will be fine.
