Hat have you craved since your surgery?

I craved salad the whole time I was on my liquid and soft diet. As soon as I was able to eat regular foods I tried and it made me sick as a dog! I have been craving sodas for the last couple of weeks. I haven't had one since the week before my surgery and I don't plan on having any. But the cravings for dr pepper are still there. Other than that I don't crave much.

I am six weeks post op.

I'm a Dr Pepper lover too. I haven't had surgery yet or even scheduled, I think I will enjoy a little longer!

I also crave salad the whole 8 weeks I couldn't have any. The first day I could I went to Red Robin and got my fav - Avo Cobbo salad. Ate about 4 bites and I was good. Didn't make me sick. The only thing I found that made me sick in the beginning (first 4 mths) was ice cream. Made me sick as a dog. Now I can have about 1/3 of a kids cup at Coldstone and I'm fine. Kinda bummed about that but also glad nothing makes me sick. Only go there about once a month.

I think I crave Mexican food the most. Luv the spicy, cheesy, saucy stuff so much. Probly more than before I had surgery. Hardly ever crave sweet anymore. Have a Cadbury Egg in my nightstand thats been in there since before Valentines Day (when they first came out) just in case. But it hasn't sounded good at all. I think I eat the Coldstone cuz I go there with my family...

      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.
