Dumping Snydrome

Definition from WebMD: "Dumping syndrome is an effective result of the gastric bypass system which alerts the body of inappropriate eating. Dumping syndrome is described as a shock-like state when small, easily absorbed food particles rapidly dump into the digestive system. This results in a very unpleasant feeling with symptoms such as a cold clammy sweat, nausea, pallor, butterflies in the stomach and a pounding pulse. These symptoms may be followed by cramps and vomitting. This state can last for 30-60 minutes and is quite uncomfortable."

I had my second major cause of dumping syndrome last night, unfortunately I was at my sisters watching the girls and it scared them. My sister stopped at Boston Market and brought home dinner, I have had rotisserie chicken since my surgery but not from there. After a few bites and I am talking few bites I felt horrible. Instant nausea and bad stomach pains. It lasted about 90 minutes with me having to vomit. I got the chills, cold sweats and bad cramps. The only other time I had this was the last time I ate bread. This is my fear about eating new foods in public places. I have no idea what will affect me and how. For the most part I have tolerated foods good but when I don't watch out.

I continue to be on steady pace of losing weight. I don't eat Bread, Rice, Pasta or Sugar. I eat alot of fruit, chicken, turkey and seafood. I have stopped weighing myself and only get weighed in at my weekly nutrition appointment.
