I wouldn't mind a Chilis big-mouth burger rt now, with fries...lol! I can't really say I have had dreams of food, but I have craved stuff...mostly things like pringles or pretzels...I think it's the salty, crunchy that I want.

Good luck with your shakes....this too shall pass!

What shakes are you using? Today is my 3rd day on liquids and I've been on Unjury, chocolate (not shabby) and vanilla (yucky). I find mixing in the blender with ice and making a thick shake, makes them 100 times better. Also, for lunch I just had the Unjury chicken broth (powder/add water); it was great! I added a bit of pepper. Good luck!

Your title made me laugh and I started thinking about what a hamburger taste like. I think I forgot. It's been so long (for me that is).

Don't worry you will get use to the liquids and you will be able to tolerate being around skinny people eating their hamburgers while you are sipping on a Protein shake or broth.

Just keep your eye on the prize.

Good luck on your journey!

My dog is diabetic and I have to give him fresh foods every day. Some days chicken, other days hamburger, potatoes, etc. He gets chocolate (thats safe and made for dogs) and Dog Ice Cream as a treat after he gets his needles. Luckily I havent had the urge to raid his 'refrigerator' LOL

I found this to be funny. While I am not dreaming of food; sometimes at night I think about hamburgers. Esp the juiciness that is released when you take a bite. I don't even eat red meat on a regular basis. I have'nt had a hamburger in a year.

I keep thinking about a tub of movie popcorn with melted butter. I also keep wondering if I should have had some fantastic last meal. I didn't because nothing sounded that fantastic at the time and because eating anything that fantastic was what got me to this point in the first place.

I keep telling myself that 2 weeks of Protein shakes twice a day and a lean cuisine (never liked them much bf but now find myself looking forward to this small amount of solid food that now seems to taste incredibly good, lol) and three weeks of liquids after the surgery are really a small price to pay for what I hope to be a lifetime of healthy living.

This is too funny, my wife actually had a dream about a cheeseburger too while she was on her Pre-op Liver dient. She has told everyone. Told her I would make her one on week 3/4.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
