Omg, I am having dreams about cheating on my diet :(



Recommended Posts

So it's days 12 after surgery and lately I've been dreaming about food. Last night, I had a dream that my SIL came over and he bought a at least 10 different kind of chocolate cakes and I kept eating and eating and eating. Then I tell her omg I can't believe all the hard work I put into losing weight I just gained it back in seconds. I told her I wish she never came because I was doing so good. Before surgery, every time me and her hung out we made delicious food, got Snacks and watched movies. This freaked me out when I woke up because I thought I effed my baby pouch.. All good though, I didn't cheat haha :)

That was a nightmare for sure!!!!!!!!!

YESSSS, I miss my chocolate cake so very much.

If you subscribe to Freud, dreams are the royal road to the subconscious.

Be ever vigilant and aware in the coming weeks.

Lately I dream of Pasta when my blood sugar is too low. (I am diabetic.) Freud aside, our attachment to certain types of food takes time to break. Our bodies are going through addiction withdrawal. For you, chocolate cake. For me, pasta!

But we will succeed!

Ah the subconscious....

Your dream and ones like it seem normal to me...

Better to dream about it then do it

Ahhh the subconscious mind... Try not to focus on what you think you "can't" have.

There are a bunch of things you can have after being sleeved that will help with sweet cravings. Jello makes a sugar free double chocolate pudding that hits the spot for me. I debated weather the fat free was better, but the carb count on the sugar free works better for me. Check out theworldaccordingtoeggface.com and emilybites.com Tons of great recipes that you and your SIL can try next time. You may find some new favorites!

old joke> If you dream about a giant marshmallow don't eat it...it's your pillow! :D

I had an opposite dream last night. I looked down in my dream and it was an absolute straight shot to my feet....no belly, no loose skin, what I used to look at when I was a skinny kid.

Without big bucks for plastics...dreams do remain just dreams at times.

Thats funny , i think it very common. My co-worker and I discuss about our food dreams we were having. I had a dream i was swimming in cola and drinking it, eating mac and cheese and eating chocolate molten cake. Then i wake up and realize just my mind dreaming of my old desires.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
