I did break the other day after 9 weeks post op and bought a 4 pack of the soft batch choc chip cookie. I did not even look at the calories. I ate 1 single cookie 4 days in a row to get my craving to go away. Now that they are gone I am fine. I certainly would not buy a large package or Oreo's as I know they would be calling my name from the kitchen at night when I was trying to sleep.< /p>

after my surgery i had dreams about gravy. Every day for a week or so. And the weird thing is, besides my moms gravy at holidays i never ate gravy. I have a cookie on occassion. I never keep them in the house, i had an oreo and the chocolate turned my stomach. i do enjoy a graham cracker or animal cracker once in awhile, and they arent nearly as bad so i dont feel guilty.

i had the flu for a week and lost 9 pounds. For the 2 days afterwards i ate the most food i have eaten since my surgery. I had a whole pack of animal crackers. You know, the ones that comes in that cute box that looks like a zoo lol. and they were DELICIOUS!!! Dont sweat a cookie or two. We have to live as normally as we can, and who doesnt have a cookie once in awhile.

Better to cheat in your dreams than in reality. But seriously, a cookie or two a week is not going to injure us. So dream away and indulge occassionaly. But keep track of how often you indulge.

I remember having these bizarre binging nightmares for like the first 4 weeks after my sleeve! So weird!

That said, apricot Cookies sound intriguing. Might have to make some - with Splenda, naturally1

      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.
