Default Birthday Cake!

okay everbody i tried birthday cake and I didn't dump! The piece I tried was maybe the size of a matchbox...lol......It was my son's 15th Birthday party and I had to wait till the day after to try it.....because there is no way i could risk getting sick at Hooters where his party was....lol...So Sunday i wake up and sneak into the kitchen like a small child....Cut the cake and try it......Then I sat in silence waiting for the pouch to react.........Nothing...So I know i will have to only try sugars once in a blue moon and only tiny morsels of it.........

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I hate to say it but I have heard of more people not dumping from surgars. I have not tried any sweets but then again it doesnt bother me. Sweets is not my downfall. Mine is the crunchy salty stuff. But more and more I keep hearing people saying they can eat sweets and not get sick. I just had it drilled in my head that sweets would make you dump and I guess that is why I stay away from them. But like i said, I keep hearing differently from people.

Default Sweets

You know I have been so scared of sugars. istay very far away from them. I am still sore from the surgery and i think if I had to puke it would hurt so bad, but that cake was calling me.......Also kenya i heard others say that the sweets sometimes will catch you when you least expect it. So we should all be very careful.........It was drilled into my head as well....NO SWEETS NO SUGAR

That is my dreaded fear, so I dont even think about eating sugar. that is what got me where I was over 2 months ago, and I hope that I never have any use for them in the months to come. I have found so many wonderful tasting SF items that I dont think that I will ever miss it. LOLOLOL May change my mind in the future, but for now, I like being scared.

I dont think there was anything wrong with you having the amount you did. You knew to stop there. Im afraid we are all going to be challanged at some point with somthing we really want to try. Be ready to dump however the next time.

I never was a big sugar eater.. And in the last three years since I have had type two I never eat anything with real sugar that is bigger then about like you said a matchbox anyway.. Occasionally a piece of candy.. the bite sized.. but I can live without sugar..(It is salt and crunchy for me too)

Thumbs up

It's true, lots of us who have the surgery are not affected by surgar, that is the "dumping" afterwards. I personally have not used granulated sugar since my surgery, I use Splenda for everything, but I have eaten things with regular sugar in them. The difference is that I eat with GREAT moderation. That's the key. One or two bites, in my opinion is okay. We are all different so what works of me may not work for you. We all have to find our way. That's the fun of it all.

With that said, Happy Losing,
Debbie
