What ya eating tonight?

[SoccerMomma73 1,867]

Can I ask some of my post-op friends how they got past the extreme head hunger?? I'm seriously almost in tears! All I want is a big' date=' juicy burger, but I'm on Clear Liquids for another week, full liquids for 2 weeks, and then puréed for 2 weeks. I know this is only temporary and will be worth it. I'm just mourning food right now, I guess.... Lol[/quote']

There's no easy way when you're still on clear liquids....you just have to grab a Popsicle or juice or Water or chicken broth and suck n it all day.....it totally sucks'!!!! Once you get to fully and puréed you can mangle a burger into cheeseburger Soup and purée it and calm that craving ....but got now its just hang on and know it will get better. You can do this !!!!!!

Oh my! I am so sorry! That's a long time for liquids! The liquids stage was the absolute worst stage for me with head hunger too. I wish I knew how to help... I took a lot of naps during that time. My therapist told me that our brains have muscle memory, and when we feel like eating we need to find an activity that mimics that muscle movement. For me, it helped playing a game on my iPhone and the napping but maybe you can come up with something more creative. Sorry that's probably not much help

Even if you had a big, juicy burger in front of you, you would be able to eat only a few bites. And it would probably make you feel sick and regret it! Hang in there cuz it will get better.
