How many sugars for you??

I am wondering how many grams of sugar some of you can handle before you dump..I know not everyone does but those of you who do..everyday I eat a greek yogurt that has 16 grams of sugar and I love it, never have a problem with it...now for a second time I eat a different greek yogurt that has 17 grams of sugar and that is bad news!! I guess I didn't believe it the first time and thought I would try it again..really wish I hadn't

 hmm...  I  am not sure  but I know  it s a lot less when there is  fat involved .

 Like I  can eat  a few jellybeans  and not dump  ( especially over  a period of time )  but  I will certainly dump if I eat a real full fat dessert or  bites of a  series of em  say at a wedding .... 

I honestly feel very strongly about this  ..I am SO  grateful for  the exasperating   dumping    because its finally instilled a healthy fear of and avoidance  of sugar in me for the  first time in my life .   I WISH I still woudln't  try those gosh darned  expensive  jellybeans  though!  

Its so funny that I had to have my azz kicked again and agin and again to become teachable  lol ...

gosh what a hardhead ! 

I have a Sleevie and don't dump, but sorry you had a bad outcome to that experiment. :(

Depends on what food it is. but i try to keep it under 10 because dumping is the worst feeling in the world! (unless it is fruit but i do limit fruit because too much does make me dump if i have too much)

i get the fage 0% greek yogurt. 1/2 cup (which is a perfect amount because it fills me up and doesn't slide) i think is 4.5 sugars but 1 serving is 1cup so it says 9 on the label....and then i mix sugar free preservatives in it (5 sugars for 2tbs i believe) i prefer doing that over getting the greek yogurt with fruit in it that do have 15-20 sugars. and it's cheaper because you can buy the big tubs that are much cheaper than the individuals :)

sorry you had a bad experience...i wouldn't wi**** on my worst enemy! (well maybe ;) jk)

oh! p.s!! , you should try the fage 0% (1/2C)  with 4tbs sugar free vanilla syrup (i actually use french vanilla) with 5 splenda packets and 2tsp ofcinnamon....o m g!!!!! to die for! sometimes i dip warm baked apple slices in it!

I am going to try that! That sounds really yummy..I think my limit is 15 because of my greek yogurt with 16 grams I leave a couple of teaspoons because I feel like I better stop..so I am up for trying things that are not on my threshold, although I am glad I dump because I was a sugar addict before it really is not a good feeling!

I really don't know how many sugars I can have before I dump.  I used as a rule of thumb after surgery to limit sugars to 5g, but now I just try to avoid it. 

Now, last night I shared a piece of peanut butter pie with my BF's daughter.  That was pretty adventurous for me, but I haven't dumped in a long time so I thought I was ok.....  Oh, and I had 2 beers with dinner (the mix is a major no-no)

Well.... we get home and I'm not feeling too well.  I get hot sweaty and shaky.  Is it a hot flash, reactive hypoglycemia or dumping?  hard to tell... I took a small little nap...

Usually RH happens with alcohol and carbs... but what really are carbs?  SUGAR...

It is a trial and error event unfortunately. 

Might have been dumping, I also dump when I eat too many carbs and beer is full of carbs..I think I may actually dump worse on carbs than anything..early on I would dump by eating mashed potatoes..and of course I am gluten free so I don't eat any bread or pasta which is probably a good thing since my body seems to hate carbs..

I am not really sure...but it seems to matter whay kind of sugar it is....

I can do plain greek yougurt with no problems.....when I use the firuit flavored kind, I dump
I can each apples, pears and bananas
I cannot eat any amount of "sweets"....I dump

Since dumping is so awful....I do not experiment, it is just not worth it  

What exactly classifies "dumping"? I told my surgeon that I do not eat refined carbs(bread,rice,pasta,etc****assionally I have tried a little pirates booty or baked veggie sticks. I get heart palpatations, shaky & sweaty 7 feel like I have to lie down. I usually "pass out" for 20 min & then i'm fine. This will happen to me w/ high sugar fruits also. Is this a form of dumping as my surgeon said? What happens to other people when they dump? I have occassionally had some severe pain the few times I didn't listen to my body & ate too much but haven't tried to eat anything I'm really not supposed to. Thank You, Alyse
