Dreaming of food??



Recommended Posts

😆 yes - I've dreamt about eating the foods I love and which I can't eat any more!

I just told my hubby I wish Willy Wonka would have made a low carb high Protein all day chew that had a pizza changing to Big Mac changing to cheese cake hard candy!!!! LOL. My mouth just wants to chew some real food!!!! I see the Dr tomorrow for my two week check up and praying for regular food in a blender because I am tired of drinking my meals :)

I think as adult humans we just desire chewing our food. Remember pop rocks as a kid and the anticipation of the snap and pop in your mouth, there is just something about the feel of the food as well as the taste.

I did that a lot at the beginning, and I still dream about food from time to time. In my dream I'm always eating a huge amount of forbidden foods. I'm also aware that I shouldn't be and feel guilty about it. I'm quite relieved when I wake up and realize it wasn't true.

I dream about it sometimes at 5.5 years out of surgery. I still dream about smoking sometimes, and I quit 26 years ago. I think addictions are sometimes like that...

Same with me. It doesn't happen anymore, but I used to have dreams of totally pigging out on pizza, ice cream, and eating a whole cake. I would feel terrible, guilty, and shamed. Then I would wake up and be soooooo relieved!

A few months back I dreamed of bread every night for over a week. I was seriously missing it. My nutritionist gave me the okay to add low carb bread into my diet, but it made me dump so bread makes me very wary now...

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
