Any recent post-oppers in the liquid stage having “food dreams”? Every night I go to sleep (this has literally happened since the night of my surgery I have a dream that I’m eating something. Sometimes indulgent sometimes salad. But I’m eating and worried that I’ll break my sleeve, but I keep eating in the dream. Only to wake up and realize I haven’t done any of it. I don’t know if it’s the post op liquid diet that I have to do for a month before going on to purée, or my addiction to food is worse that i thought. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know

YES! I am 1 week post op today, just started on full liquids and I never thought I'd love a Protein Shake as much as I do now.

Eeryday I'm craving something different. Yesterday was craving ahi tuna, today I'm craving cheese and guacamole.

      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.
