Question Dump? or Stuck?

See, I am not sure that I dumped, it didn't feel anything like I have been told dumping feels like. I seriously felt like something was stuck in my throat and pouch. You know when you choke on something and afterwards it still feels like its stuck there? Thats how it felt.
The hashbrowns were in a box like little shreads of potato, I put them in water and thats it. Yes, in a frying pan but no oils of any sort. Now maybe the manufacture fries them??? Dunno.
All I know is I will NEVER eat hashbrowns EVER EVER again!!! LOL I am thinking maybe the hashbrowns being shreaded potatoes maybe they clumped back together in my pouch? Either way NO MORE HASHBROWNS! LOL

These stories are unbelievable!! I was very very fortunate to have a very good education (to the tune of 26 weeks of classes) learning about the after life.

The stories here amaze me because I would NEVER even consider eating some of the food that people on here eat, the golden rule we lived by was 12-16 weeks, and not allowing anything that even resembled any type of oil, grease, rice, noodles etc. Yes some people can tolerate them at earlier stages of the first 4 months, but why? I found that waiting for at least 4 months to indulge in things that may make me sick was not too much time to sacrifice, since this surgery was going to last quite a long time!!

This surgery is also very interesting, since it is not rocket science, and the rules are made by each surgeon, and they sometimes very by quite a large margin, hence, ask a question to 20 people and get 25 answers!!!

Im 4 months out, and only threw up once, and that was because I ate a pill that was too big, and got stuck.

This is the running amount of money saved by not having to spend so much eating out. Number based on spending $20 a day on food. And that very conservative!!!

My stuck foods are always 'good for me' foods. I havent tried anything fried, greasy or starchy. and being italian....that aint something easy...lol
It is alwaysssssssssss on chicken. no matter how many times i try to make it different ways and....chew chew chew....it just doesnt work for me.
So if i cant do simple chicken.....i certainly am not gonna try that other stuff.

Again, many different opinions, here's my surgeons view on chicken, .....

No chicken for a YEAR!! Yep they changed the rule a few months ago, claiming that research has shown that too many people have problems digesting chicken, dark turkey meat is fine after 8 weeks, but NO chicken!!
