Sleeved on 12/2/14 and having cravings.



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve done on 12/2/14 and have been doing pretty well with everything. However I am having cravings for stuff that I don't need to eat yet. I should only be eating puréed food at this point per my doctor. I have tried a few things that I should not have eaten but I didn't have any issues with it. I'm just scared this is not going to go away and I need to stop this now before it becomes a problem.

I am worried about overeating. I also had my surgery on 12/2/2014. The other day I ate

a noodle dish and I was able to eat like two cups !! i just felt some discomfort afterwards.

But, I don't want to do this again. During , the first week if i ate too much i felt pain. Why

didnt i feel pain when eating the noodle dish ?

@@sld010 Yes, your right you really should stop and stick to your surgeons plan. Remember just because you can do it doesn't mean you should. The last thing you want to do it cause yourself Issues. Your stomach is no where near healed yet so be careful! Hang in there you will be eating "real" food before you know it. Don't rush!

I'm not sure why you would even try, but it's not good for you. The surgery is but a tool, we have to train ourselves to learn new habits. For some of us that may mean counseling to handle food addictions. I would recommend tossing that noodle dish and anything else in the house that you have no self control over. Stick to your recommended eating plan.

      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.
