I have a serious crack(er) addiction



Recommended Posts

I have discovered rice crackers (approved as I slowly move on to soft foods) , however for lunch 4 of those tiny crackers are more than enough to fill me up, but what I have found is that I am addicted to licking the seasoning off the rest of them lol

I am sure it's probably too much salt ..but yeah I am having hardly any food so fuck it for the moment I don't care :)

Anyway that all for today .. Almost 3 weeks post surgery I only have a few more days before I have to go back to work :( boooo but feeling good at the moment

You're funny! In solidarity and respect I will admit I have yet to resort to licking food, but it has definitely occurred to me! Beware of those darn rice crackers, I have celiac, and boy those things shoot my blood sugar to the sky! (Oh yeah, also diabetic, joy...) I imagine they are approved because of texture, not nutrition. Then again, what can a few licks hurt? Hope you get to eat more soon.

I bought the gluten free rice crackers and they are pretty low in calories. It does help with getting the tunafish down. I don't think a few crackers are going to hurt you as long as you are not overdoing the carbs. good luck.

I've done the lick thing with pretzels! I really craved the salt when I first got into soft foods, too!

      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.
