What Types Of Food Are People Craving After All Healed



Recommended Posts

For the first week post-op I would have strangled a grizzly bear with my bare hands for a Five Guys burger. Since then I've had no major cravings.

Turkey chili was on my week 3-6 soft and moist list, and it was good. Still is.

If you don't feel like making your own, this brand in a can is surprisingly good. I found it at Safeway, Stagg Turkey Ranchero: http://www.hormelfoods.com/brands/stagg/default.aspx#

Looks like it's also made by Hormel, but way better tasting than the Hormel-labeled turkey chili. Probably not the optimal choice with the carbs and sodium, but good occasionally.

Chilli. I don't know whether it is a craving as I don't think about it until someone asks me what I want for lunch or dinner and I just find myself saying "chilli".

I am a make my own kind of gal. Plus, I live in New Zealand and we don't have those brands here :-) though it must be so easy to be able to just open a can! I tend to make a big batch and freeze half cup portions, they are a real go to for me and make up my work lunch most days. I have always enjoyed chilli but post sleeve it seems to be my new favourite!

I don't think this is a strange question at all (but what a strange response).

I crave the same foods I always did. For me, nothing has changed. I'm almost 4 weeks out and I can eat anything, just in very small amounts.

pizza is my only craving these days. All other food is very meh, I can take it or leave it. I craved a taco all through my liquid phase, and discovered I could no longer eat them after I went to solids. Since it made me feel bad, I haven't craved it again. I find that A LOT with solids. :)

      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.
