megansmommy123 57 Posted September 8, 2013 Soda is the only thing that I really crave. Everything else is easy to stay away from, but I crave soda all the time! Thankfully for me, I tried a few sips, and it tasted yucky, and made my tummy feel gassy. So I know I wont be able to drink one, but I still want to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
megansmommy123 57 Posted September 8, 2013 By the way, DONT crunch on ice! My mom was an "ice eater" for years. She would crunch on cups full of ice every day. She RUINED her teeth. Broke several, and cracked others. The dentist said eating ice is a common cause of cracked teeth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ElyQuint 446 Posted September 8, 2013 I'm craving pizza. I am 4 weeks out. I'm about 6 weeks and suddenly craving pizza. I keep hoping my daughter will get one so I can try a single bite. Today I took fresh mozz, a slice of Tomato and some basil and stuck it in the toaster oven broiler. Yum. Not pizza but yum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macy6 356 Posted September 8, 2013 I wasn't a huge soda drinker pre op, but when I have school (once a week) I would get a soda out of the vending machine. This last week I was at school, for the first time since surgery, and stood in the hall just staring at the vending machine. One of my classmates walked by, looked down the hall, kept walking, and came back, she walks over and puts her arm around my shoulder and goes "Come on, It's OK, you don't want it anyway" and we walked back to class lol 1 TonyaA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JessicaAnn 564 Posted September 8, 2013 I'm craving pizza. I am 4 weeks out. I made the most delish cauliflower pizza crust! It wasn't exactly the same as real pizza, but satisfied my craving! And I may be the minority, and I'll probably get bashed, but I have soda once in a while. I take a can of diet coke, let it go flat for a day or 2, then sip it when I have a craving. One can lasts about a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NMJG 1,266 Posted September 8, 2013 I want a nice cold beer when it's hot out. Really miss that. I tried a tiny sip of my hubby's glass and even that was too much. No beer for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
