The entire time I've been on the liquid diet I've had vivid dreams about eating food. In some instances I felt like I could taste and it and would occasionally wake up in the panic thinking I'd cheated. I find this weird and hilarious.

Has this happened to anyone else

I have had that happen when I have been on diets before and I expect it will again when I start my liquid diet next week.

It is such a freaky feeling and the dreams are so detailed.

Yep, I do dream of food also. I am three weeks post op, last night I had a dream I ate a big dish of spaghetti with meatballs, and a lot of Pasta, with a piece of garlic bread. I woke up so worried that I would ruin my sleeve with all that pasta! What a relief when you realize it's just a dream!!

I totally did this the first week and a half of my liquid diet. It was frightening. I just wanted something with texture so badly, I was even dreaming of eating foods I don't like!

Too funny! I did the same thing except it was after my surgery! My husband thought it was funny too. I would wake up in a panic ...thinking I had drank a soda one time!

Isn't it assuring to know we are all "normal"(whatever that is)?

      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.
