So, my surgery is this coming Thursday, and I'm on my pre-op diet. I'm sticking to it, but I'm feeling really deprived. I'm craving a pizza, BBQ, etc. Do those cravings and feelings of deprivation go away? I know this is a big head trip, but when I am allowed only 2 oz of food, am I still going to want the junk? I know all the reasoning behind that's what gotten me here, but can a leopard change her spots? Help!

I'm almost a week post op and my stomach growls all the time. I'm always hungry and it drives me crazy. I'm going to ask my surgeon Thursday when I get my staples out but it's terrible. I'm good at getting every vitamin and every ounce of protein in that I need to but am still hungry. I thought for a few days this was a mental thing but I've been waking up in the middle of the night because my stomach is growling so bad. Don't know why I'm an exception but it's so annoying. Luckily I know I can't eat anything other than the delicious pureed food I've been enjoying. :-/

My tummy growled a lot for the first couple weeks so much so at night that we had to run a fan cause hubby and I would start laughing at the noise and laughing hurt....by the 3rd week it died down and would only growl when I smelt something really yummy...for me it really played with my mind being so use to that starving to death feeling when I heard or felt my tummy rumble but I stuck to my plan and put something in my tiny tummy every 3 to 4 hours and told myself its my old tummy fighting the change...now 7 weeks out very rarely does he grumble...good luck to you

It gets better...☺️
