Craving a cigarette and onion pickle BADLY lol. Craving other things also but those would satisfy me right now

lol that's funny. I craved a pickle too, just after my operation.

What I did to soothe the craving was to get the pickle jar out, stick my finger into the vinegar and lick it. Did me the world of good to taste something that was vaguely normal!

As long as you don't try to eat a pickle, you'll be fine :)

I too have turned to smoking again. Only 4 or so a day. Boredom and can't turn to food- hope to quit again once I return to work. I know it does not help healing- I'm 13 days out. I was returning to work the 17th, next Monday- but think I should go back half days starting Wednesday. I would have returned, but have little energy to sustain a whole day at work.

      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.
