Pickles

Are they bad for you? I've been craving them like crazy!!

[Sarah0829 41]

I was craving them around 3 weeks out! I had a few sliced ones and chewed them really good... Haven't had craving since

I craved the taste too. Had some Pickle Juice. I talked to my NUT and she said a small amount of the juice was ok but to be mindful of the sodium.

I'm about 3 and a half weeks out! I want them all the time. It's weird. They do have pretty much nothing except a LOT of sodium. *sigh*

I had Pickle Juice at 3 weeks. It stopped the craving. Tasted great.

[steffranco 45]

Is it weird that I'm 3 weeks out and I can pretty much eat anything? (Not junk of course) I thought right now it'd be more difficult to get stuff down.

[Sarah0829 41]

I was the same at 3 weeks now I'm 5 and I rarely have problems with food

Lucky you!! I'm almost 11 months out and still have problems with foods some times like today. But....I'm eating more "regular" foods with my Protein.< /p>

I thought it was just me. I 4 days post surgery and just want a pickle so bad. I have gotten tired of broth. I was on a 2 week liquid diet and enjoyed my broth. Never had cottage cheese can I eat the ones with fruit at the next stage or just plain?

Ask ur nut. Everyone's stages are different.

I wanted Pickle Juice at that point too. The Dr insisted it was caused by failure to drink enough Water. My nut said a lol is fine.

Thanks. I'm glad some of the soreness is going. Plus I'm tired of sleeping at a 45degree angle my butt hurts. Lol
