I had similar cravings today! While making my 7 year olds lunch, she requested slices of watermelon. Just smelling it, as it was glistening in the sunlight, and looking so ripe,red, and juicy, I felt like I could bite my own arm off for a piece. UGH!! Also, Instead of pickles I wanted olive juice so baddddd! Not the olives, ...just the salty brine. I gave into the olive juice craving, I had a teaspoon, just enough to get it out of my head. I drank extra Water to make up for it! Lol. :-)

Haven't tried yet, but if you are familiar w/Chico's I dont think it'll be a problem. They basicly fall apart anyhow.

I'm 23days out now.

You could sip the juice maybe' date=' but it's pretty acidic. I think I'd wait awhile.[/quote']

I'm in the Dallas area too!

I LOVE pickles! I'm only 10 days postop and the Pickle Juice from the spicy pickles in my fridge was screaming my name the other day. :-) I ended up putting a real small amount through my strainer into a cup and drank the two small sips of it. It was soooooo delicious and my sleeve didn't mind it. I can't wait to actually get to eat them again. Heck, I can't wait to eat anything again. The end of my 21 day postop liquid diet can't come soon enough!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
