Vinegar

Im on day 5 of my pre-op diet, and I've been craving sour. I've been drinking Pickle Juice, and then mixing in straight vinegar. Has anyone else had this problem?

Yes...I was craving balsamic vinaigrette pre and post op. Weird to hear someone else did too. I didn't do anything about it. But what a strange coincidence!

I've been craving pickles like crazy since right before and still after the surgery.

Whew! Glad to hear I'm not the only one craving vinegar!! Thought something was wrong with me LOL. I've been on a liquid diet and soon after starting all liquid I started craving vinegar. I researched and found that as long as it is distiled it wont hurt anything and it has actually curbed my cravings for solid food!! When I crave solid food I pour an ounce or two of vinegar in a little cup and drink it (I know it sounds totally crazy). The craving for vinegar subsides for a while and I forget all about wanting solid food! It has really been a blessing cause as most of us know doing a liquid diet is FAR from easy!!

Well, this is certainly some good handy dandy info to know for the future.

My husband looked into it more and it's from to much Calcium, Your body can't process all the calcuim (in the Protein drinks) and needs to be broken down. As he put it, it's pretty much a calcium overdose.

I normally don't eat pickles but as soon as I hit solids that is all I wanted. Weird! Good to know about the Calcium overdose. It makes sense now!
