lex2287 98 Posted May 20, 2018 I craved pickles so bad after I was sleeved. You can have it, just high in sodium so do so in moderation. It helped with my reflux. I still eat pickles almost every day and I’m 6 months post-op 2 1 WildDinaV, Normaj3443 and BINABINA25 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted May 20, 2018 Still on the presurg side of things , when I gave up evil sweets and nasty soda, which realized is truly for the best, do you know what I want? Veggies, have To be cooked because you can't chomp raw ones real great with dentures, but I love steamed broccoli, brussel sprouts, carrots, peas and little pearl onions. Hold a baked or nuked sweet potato in front of my face and I'll follow you anywhere.🍝 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Losebig 508 Posted May 20, 2018 In medium doses it's a laxative, so be careful! Have plenty of Water and stay hydrated. Athletes swear by it for cramps and dehydration.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nevermore71 63 Posted May 20, 2018 Your electrolytes are probably off. Are you drinking plenty of broth with sodium? Taking your Vitamins? 2 Normaj3443 and Beta98 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Normaj3443 40 Posted May 21, 2018 Your electrolytes are probably off. Are you drinking plenty of broth with sodium? Taking your Vitamins?I think that's what it was. I haven't drank much broth. I am taking my Vitamins though. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nevermore71 63 Posted May 21, 2018 As you lose Water weight you flush electrolytes from your body. Also due to the low consumption of food, sodium and potassium intake is way down. The electrolytes should be replaced or you'll start to feel sick. broth is helpful in replacing electrolytes. You can also add lite salt which has potassium and sodium in it to your diet. Vitamins usually are pretty low in electrolytes due to the assumption you'll get enough sodium from your diet and the potential of possible overdosing on potassium. Drinking Pickle Juice is helpful. But the broth will add some Protein in. Hopefully your Multivitamin has the needed magnesium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Losebig 508 Posted May 22, 2018 You should also be having at least one electrolyte beverage a day. Makes a huge difference for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BINABINA25 50 Posted May 22, 2018 I think we all went through that phase...I did drink a little juice every now and then just to satisfy the craving but remember it is high in sodium. But its no harm to have a sip🤗🤗🥒🥒🥒 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
