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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
