I know it sounds weird to most folks, but I have seen posts of others drinking it. I have tried to search but I can't get anything to come up. Curious to how far out you were when you had some and about how much was it? :)

It's just a substitute of eating a dill pickle. I've had it for years. Yum. Just looking to have some now but not sure how long out to wait. :)

There are a lot of weirdos here that drink pickle juice!! Some say it helps with acid? Some pure it in their tuna, some DRINK IT :P

I don't know I thought you always threw the juice away after you've eaten the pickles..

Oh and someone even poured it over shaved ice to make a slushie!

Well, pickle juice is good when you use it in tuna or egg salad - I normally put some chopped pickle in both tuna and egg salads, and sometimes choose to put a little less mayo or mustard in the mix and add a spoon or two of Pickle Juice instead. The big problem with pickle juice is the ultra-high sodium content in most cases.

Vinegar is actually supposed to be healthy for you (if you aren't familiar with it, visit any good Asian market and look at the drinking vinegars.) If you're in Portland, visit Pok Pok and have their drinking vinegar soft drinks, or a cocktail mixed with the drinking vinegar. It comes in several different flavors, and it was quite surprising to me the first time I tried it.

It's a spot on cure for hiccups...I am completely serious. That is when I would have a sip, if holding my breath didn't work. I got this tip from my grandfather.

does it have a lot of sodium? I like salt, but it doesn't like me!

I drink it for leg cramps! Will stop them in their tracks! I like to freeze it in ice trays and eat them like popcicles

      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.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
