poll - what did your surgeon tell you about dumping?

Before you had RNY, what did your surgeon tell you about dumping?

That all RNY patients dump?
That most dump?
That only about 30% dump?
Something else?

Mine told me, or at least implied, that all RNY folks dump.  Which of course is not true.

I was told about 30-40% of RNY patients dump. And then I hoped that I would be in that category.  I'm only 2 weeks out so I have no clue if I will dump.

I got the 30% figure.  Was told not to depend on the dumping to help avoid sugar/fats.  And the hand out with the description of the symptoms and what not. 

I was told 30%. 30% is a high enough percentage for me NOT to try!

He didn't tell me anything.  Just told me to to avoid sugar.  My nutritionist wasnt' too helpful.  Everything I know is from this site and my friends/family who have had this surgery.  I know they all avoided it the first year and now eat anything they want, but are all very thin and haven't gained any weight. 

I'll look up the documentation I was given later, but I'm pretty sure no percentage was given.  They said dumping is a possibility.  Until these forums, I thought it was a certainty, but just a matter of what your personal limit might be.  I don't dump, but in my head I have to think I still might.  It helps me keep myself in check.

 I was told avoid sugar or you WILL dump. I'm not really sure if I dum*****t..I had dumping like symptoms from 1/2 of a quest bar from the sugar alcohol..but I haven't consumed anything with enough regular sugar in it to test those waters. 

Not all quest bars have sugar alcohol. The 3 I eat on a regular basis don't have any at all. I don't know about the others.

 Yeah I didn't realize they have 2 lines until after the fact..my gym had a box of the 'natural' line that they were selling and since I had heard so many good things about the quest bars I purchased a few and had a horrible experience. 

Apparently the 100% natural ones have sugar alcohol and the 99.5% natural ones do not..I haven't tried any of the others since the bad experience but maybe one day I will. 

I dump on the regular Quest bars. They are just too high in overall carbs for me. But, I dump on just about anything with more than a few carbs, any kind of carbs.
