I had another dream last night that I busted my sleeve eating a salad and tried to throw it up to save my sleeve. Post op diets are rough.

I am on my pre op liquid diet and am having food nightmares!!! Today I dreamt I cheated by eating fish and it broke my front tooth! Wth then later I dreamt of string cheese lol

Interesting foods to dream cheat with! You may want to try my dream hot fudge sundae instead.

Ha ha! But it's interesting that you dreamt of a tooth breaking...in dream interpretation, teeth breaking or falling out all signify that you are in a "change" mode. And this is SO true for us WLS patients. So it's kind of neat that your dream mind is reflecting this change.

I can't help but join in on this one. Today was hubby's birthday and I fixed his favorite - homemade lasagna! I am day 5 now post op so none for me. I told him if that didn't show him I love him I don't know what more I could possibly do!

Lol no kidding, your food dream sounds much more exciting!!! But it was really interesting to me because I am a vegetarian so I don't eat fish but I keep saying I am going to add it back into my diet.

That is really neat, I knew breaking teeth signified something I just didn't know what so thank you for sharing that information!

Yes, I've been having food dreams and sex dreams. Really weird because I didn't dream often before surgery, now I dream every night.

In the beginning I had several dreams about eating Pasta, linguine specifically! No nightmare, just hungry, I guess!

All the time! I wake up so relieved I didn't really eat whatever it was. I have eaten in my dreams anything from cupcakes to pizza.

I had a lot of these dreams right after surgery and sometimes I still do have them. I just make myself think that someday I'll have some steak or a little bite off a pizza and it kinda goes away from my mind.

Had a dream 2 nights ago where I was obsessing about going to a shop that sold dozens of flavors of popcorn, and trying them all. It was as if Pre-Op Me was having the dream. I woke up sweating.

When I quit smoking, years ago, I would dream I was smoking. So many mixed emotions on that one. Pleasure from the easing of the cravings, then dispair and guilt because I failed again. Then such relief when I woke up and realize it was just a dream. I still have one every few years.

      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.
