I am 17 days post op and this week for the past 3 or 4 days I have been craving for food at night. I do very well during the day but for some reason at night, I just start craving for solids. Last night I was craving and I had some broth but it made me feel nauseous. Is anybody experiencing the same or felt this way post op?

I remember having cravings at night. It was hard. Before my surgery I always grazed at night after the house went quiet.

Try and make sure you get your required intake throughout the day and if you have... just try try try to resist.

If you just need something and cannot resist maybe drink a lil of a thickened Protein Drink.< /p>

It gets easier so hang in there!!! :)

Try drinking something or sugar free popsicles.

I usually have sugar free Jello, weight watchers cheese, or just a couple of Keebler fat free crackers. It does the trick. Try it! Good luck!

I always had a "snack" at bedtime, too. It was usually something HORRIBLE to be eating right before bed like Oreos or some other sweets.

I have to make sure that I have a Protein shake or (most often) a chocolately Protein Bar to take upstairs with me for bed or I find myself craving sweets in a bad way. Or even a sf chocolate pudding. I just plan it into my day now.

yeah, I have been trying the Protein shake and I think that helps a lot. Plus I also try to always keep in mind what I have been going through before and after the surgery to remind myself it's not worth screwing it for some food that might even make me sick after all. :) It's hard but we should keep trying.

      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.
