nightmares about food



Recommended Posts

Hi guess what does anyone else have nightmares about eating the wrong foods sometimes I dream I ate an Italian hero from a deli and dreamed that I really enjoyed the Italian hero bread about the sandwich. Basically I have nightmares about eating fatty carbs and carbs that I can't or shouldn't eat. I swear nightmares like that are like a relapse or something it feels so real. when i wake up i realize i was only dreaming.

I had a dream the other night that I was sitting down and the skin from my thighs were touching the floor!!! I guess I'm worried about loose skin more than I thought! THat dream was completely irrational because I don't have that much weight to lose or the possibility of my skin to be that loose!!! Dreams are weird! Anyone want to analyze these for us??? lol

I used to have nightmares about eating cupcakes etc. For the rest of the dream I was just so upset with myself. The thing is now I don't even crave those things....

Been there. While low carbing I would dream of eating carby treats then freak out because I ruined the diet. It would be such a relief to wake up and find it wasn't real. Isn't it fun when the brain tries to process this stuff?

I used to dream about raw meat when I was pregnant, it was awful because it would make me sick, I would wake up gagging. Thankfully i never puked in bed! ( sorry tmi) I think this is the brain trying to find out why we don't eat that thing anymore, it gave us so much pleasure, maybe we just need a reminder? Darn pleasure centers! Oh I didn't crave raw meat while I was pregnant, I could barely stand it because I could smell it at 100 yds! (LOL) And I am a serious meat eater!

So far no weird dreams about the surgery, I am in for my last consult this week then the hit the ground running on my tests and hoped to be sleeved in March. I am sure I will have a few weird dreams before this is over!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
