How's everyone doing. Anybody else finding it scary how it's nearly the end of feb and we had our ops done in jan.
 
Doing really well. Don't even realise I've had it done apart from not being bothered about eating.

I'm exactly the same, I need to remind myself to eat xx
 
Head hunger is killing me, it's like clockwork. I want to turn it off but it's sooooo realistic as I physically can't be hungry. It literally does my head in!

Em, your 1st fill will probs help...I admire all you banders losing at the beginning, it's based purely on your self.control which is a def 'hats off' xx

I guess it's ok for now because it ensures that I am eating my three small meals plus a couple if snacks but I'm scared for the future and what it might lead to.

It's such a huge learning curve....bear in mind that me having no head hunger or hunger at all, may well all be in my head too... the general after effects of surgery I was geared up for, knew the drill, walking, burping etc, the bit of should I or shouldn't I never happened as it was revision so I knew what to expect. It almost made it easier in many ways...so mentally, your head needs to catch up with your tummy maybe??x

Oh it sure is a huge learning curve!! When I get head hunger I start chanting in my head, not hungry, not hungry over and over, I'm such a loony! I do hope you a right and it's just taking the head a bit longer to catch up.
 
So I dumped today.... First time since bypass on 14th Jan...... In a restaurant of all places.
I assume I dumped. I had 4x pieces if calamari which was tempura battered (something I know wouldn't get stuck as eating out but clearly too oily for me). Boom I felt week and yuk. Didn't know where to put myself then ended up running to the toilet with the runs!
I was in there ages. Thankfully no one else came in!!
I had to call my hubby from where I sat to ask him to settle the bill and clean the baby up so we could leave sharpish :-((

Nightmare. Hubby couldn't even finish his beer !

Is this classic bypass dumping?
 
I was like that today but lots of gurgling and nausea had to leave restaurant early and go home. There are so many different types of dumping but I thought mine might be as I had apple juice (normally fine at home but normally water Down) but had one of hubbies onion rings.
