Or is anyone else craving Pickle Juice?

I always wanted pickled things when pregnant which I am most definitely not and I am craving the juice from the jalapeno jar too :O

It's not just you! I was originally drinking the juice from the pickle jar, but then I discovered you can buy a gallon of Pickle Juice on Amazon. (It's not the real thing, but pretty darn close.) When we have guests, I often have a small glass of pickle juice when everyone else is having wine or cocktails. I somehow makes me feel more like a part of the group as opposed to drinking plain Water. Strange, I know!

Wow i thought i was crazy because I've been craving dill pickles and olives. I was telling my sister this is crazy plus my taste buds are so off. So those are one of the few things that taste normal to me.

A lot of people yearn for salty- and- or savory things. Like most things in life, you got to do what's good for you, we all got to make our own kind of 🎶 music!

Yay, so glad I saw this. My daughter laughed at me the other day when she saw me drinking from the pickle jar. 😂

haha love these replies!

I felt like I was sneaking something naughty, so was standing in the fridge sipping the pickle-less juice that I insisted the husband leave in the fridge for me, sip sip sipping wondering if the dietician would tell me off LOL

Oh thank God it’s not just me. I’ve never been pregnant, but it feels like a hormonal craving. I find myself with the frig door open, eyeing the pickle jar whilst looking around to make sure nobody’s watching my weird obsession with pickle juice! I’m going to look for the drink! I can make my own alcohol-free cocktail!! Thanks so much!! P.s. I eat the pickles too, sometimes. That crunch & burst of Pickle Juice in my mouth - Nirvana! 😂😉👍🏼

A Lot of Bari- pals Crave Savory and Salty, maybe because post surgery even Water has a Sweet Taste. I like now Lemonade, not sugar- sweetened but Stevia containing and before Surgery it was okay but scarcely refreshing. Now that sugar,desserts, fast food, Cookies ,pies, soda. and coffee are all gone , a Girl has to find Joy where She Can!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
