Any body have delayed dumping symptoms?

I had open RNY 1/13/00. I have lost 99.5#. I only needed to lose 100, so I'm at goal. I wear a size 6. I was very scared of dumping the first 8-9 months post op and didn't even try the waters. Over the last few months and especially this month, I've tried a few sweets. I thought maybe I wasn't going to dump. I haven't eaten much, a few cookies, a couple of M&M's,or one or two of those minature candy bars. Before if I tasted a sweet, I'd eat it after a meal, and then only a bite. I've become a little more risky lately and have eaten it alone. I seemed to have no problem. Except lately I have had what I think is a delayed "dumping reaction". XMAS Eve I had 2 mixed drinks with real coke(hadn't had that before, I know bad girl), a few cookies, spinach dip(real sour cream & Mayo). Next morning, terrible stomach pains and loose BM's. I felt a little bad after after eating maybe too much spincah dip. I think the mayo was too fatty. I ate about 5 little XMAS cookies the size of nickles last night, about 10 M&M's. The same thing happened this morning. I'm usually constipated so this is new to me. Does anyone else have delayed reactions? The only food that immediately bothers me when Ieat it is fried chicken skin. I can't tolerate even a little bit. I don't want to lose anymore weight. I'm as small as I've ever been. I'm still mantaining my loss and I quess I'm testing the waters to see what I can and can't do. I know that what I've eaten is minimal to what I used to eat. I want to find the diet plan that can maintain my present weight. I still eat protein first, drink my water. Lou Ann
