Cujucuyo 34 Posted June 20, 2015 Hey guys, has anyone had any unusual cravings for fruit? Be it canned or fresh lately I've had this urge to eat more. This happened after I got sick with the flu, but now that I've recovered it's the same thing. I'm taking my Multivitamins and ensure, so it's weird to be honest, not that it bothers me as I love fruit, I just didn't have this "urge" as if it were thirst (I'm well hydrated btw).

VDB 800 Posted June 20, 2015 I find that I have to eat some fruit to keep my digestion system running ok. Otherwise, get really constipated. I rehydrate a bit of dried fruit, including dried prunes, apples, and pears, and have 1/2 cup of this cooked mix a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djmohr 6,965 Posted June 20, 2015 I absolutely crave fresh fruit in particular. I have been eating a piece of fruit every day since week 4 post op. One of my favorites is a fresh crisp apple (no skins) dipped in Peanut Butter. Apples make a good vehicle instead of crackers or bread for Peanut Butter and even cheese. It is one of the best treats ever, you get Fiber from the fruit, good carbs and Protein and good fats from the peanut butter! Yummy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Mac 6,262 Posted June 20, 2015 I lovvvvve fresh fruit, but I do save it for morning so that I have the rest of the day to deal with the carbs and sugar. Yes, it does help with digestion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cujucuyo 34 Posted June 20, 2015 Good to see I'm not the only one, thanks for your responses. Lately I've changed to canned mandarin wedges in Water instead of heavy Syrup and it has worked wonders with the cravings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finediva 979 Posted June 21, 2015 I eat two strawberries and a handful of blueberries most days. I realize I get some intestinal discomfort from them so I skip a day in between. But I so enjoy them when I do eat it. Don't really know why it bothers my tummy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
