Craving pickles!



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow will be a week since I've been sleeved and things have been going great. The only craving I have had was for pickles and it was really intense. I googled it, of course, and as it turns out this is a common craving and one people satisfy with Pickle Juice. It is actually a clear liquid. Well I ran out and got some and it is amazing! Anyone else? lol

No pickle craving for me, but I was willing to wrestle my mom for a banana I saw on her counter! Up until I saw it, I had no idea I wanted a banana so bad! B)

I'm craving pickles sooo bad! I've always loved Pickles and eaten them regularly but now it's like the one thing I feel I can do without! I'm just drinking a little juice and doing the chew and spit. I no longer want chocolate or sweets the thought of those make me naucious. I'm 12 days out but I guess pickles is something ill never shake!

You can also shave some ice in your blender and pour Pickle Juice over it like a sno-cone

I don't know what it is about that special kind of sourness. I have been eating pickles like crazy, loved them before surgery, but now, WOW! Also, the otehr night I went to my parents for dinner, they were having brautwurst, and I couldn't seem to stop eating the sourkraut! I think it's common to crave vinegary-sourness when losing drastic amounts of weight, my father is currently doing the HCG diet, and my mom said he also is eating pickled anything like a fiend. I read pickled foods help with digestion, so maybe we are just craving digestion help? Funny to know my dad and I aren't the only pickle monsters!

      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.
