I drove after a week ( I was allowed once off pain meds but waited a couple more days...

I slept in a recliner for over two weeks. Maybe 3. Everytime I laid in bed I hurt.

The first few weeks, I would have these sever cravings for specific items (bacon burger thing from BK, some KFC chicken, a club sandwich, and so on). Anyway, it really was what is called "head hunger" and it did pass. I still regret that I can't eat all the crap that I want, but overall I am very grateful that my surgery has helped me control my eating. After all, I really don't want or need to eat that gross burger or KFC food. I can have a few bites if I *really* want to and it will be okay.

I'm 2 years out, but just had a revision surgery so I'm back on the post op diet and I have been having non-stop super vivid dreams about eating, it's crazy. It's kind of funny because I guess my mind is just trying to cope with not being able to eat in it's own weird way!
We all get it, the battle will subside, I promise! [emoji173]
