Ok, the weirdest thing for me yet is a huge salt craving. I've been sucking on saladitos. For those of you unfamiliar, saladitos are salted dried plums. One saladito has at least a teaspoon of salt. Mexican kids love them and I've never been able to stand them at all--I couldn't understand why anyone anywhere would ever eat one (well you don't really eat them, you kind of suck on them). Now I want them every day!! Right now if you offered me some m&ms or a salidito (assuming I could eat the m&ms), I'd choose the saladito. How weird is that?!

Anybody else with weird cravings? Reminds me of being pregnant.

Ive also had a weird salt craving. Been wanting salted plantains or nuts. I have this feeling as if i lack salt in my body. Like im a heavy sweet tooth but i would go for the salt too i wish i knew why

I got sleeved 6/28 now almost a month exactly out and it started like a week ago... along with my strange alergy to the Protein i was drinking. Which came out no where as well

I had salt cravings and sugar cravings. I used my Protein drinks to satisfy both. Salt craving? powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Protein. It has a lot os salt or at least it tastes like it does? Sweet craving? French vanilla Gold standard whey protein.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
