Dumping comes form your blood sugars getting too elevated which happens due to the malabsorption process that we go through due to the surgery. I have dumped a couple of times over stupid stuff that I did. Trust me it is a lot different that having to take a nap. Overeating causes you to feel miserable and need to sleep.

Hope this helps clarify things for you.. good luck to you all..
