Hey guys! I'm 12 days out from being sleeved and in experiencing huge cravings! It's so hard! Has anyone else felt with this? Any tips it tricks? Nothing seems to satisfy me!

I had a huge craving today for a Chipotle burrito! I drank my Protein instead but it sure was hard not to pull in there and buy some burrito to puree! (I'm only a week out)

I really wanted popcorn from the movies the other night...so hard to hear people crunching it:)

Hang in there, we can do this!!

I had a dream the other night that I went to the movies and after eating a handful if popcorn I thought, oh crap!!! I do not think I should have done that... Thank goodness it was only a dream, I am only 3 weeks post op.

I am only a week out and I have been craving a lot its so hard and I'm trying to figure out what to do to satisfy the hunger I'm having and like the shakes the ones I have just seem like diet and not satisfying

Good job NOT getting the burrito. My son stopped by there and got one with me in the car. Lol. I didn't touch it! And I'm going to the movies this afternoon, starting praying already for strength not to touch the popcorn. Oh how I love and miss popcorn. I have a old fashion Popcorn machine in my kitchen. It's not easy. Great job.

I had cravings at 1 1/2 weeks out from my surgery. Well, I think it was more that I missed EATING. I missed food, chewing and swallowing! I was asking myself "Why did I do this". It felt like I was NEVER gonna eat again. At my 2 week follow up they told me to eat puréed foods and 3 days after my appointment I could start to Folk soft foods. I wanted to kiss my doctor! He made me to so very happy! But I think it was all mental. I JUST MISSED EATING.

After I started the puree's it got better. No more stinking thinking. I STILL have moments when I WANT something I shouldn't. But I remember the CASH I payed out of pocket and remember my goal. Having the surgery is one of the best things I could have ever done for myself.

HANG IN THERE, IT GETS EASIER.
