SABOTAGE DREAMS

[Unbesleeveable 110]

OK, I am 4 days post op..last night was my 1st night home from the hospital and I had some CRAZY dreams to say the least. I dreamed that I was home with all supports in place and once everyone left out of the door BAM, I ran into the kitchen and ate a whole stash of rice pilaf mixed with tomatoes and onions(this isn't even something that I would normally eat) I was soo convinced that I had sabotaged my sleeve, that I woke up in tears and anxiety. This is when I learned that it was a dream!. after calming down and talking with my hubby, I went back to sleep and continued similar dreams all night. Is it just me or has someone else experienced similar dreams?

That would be the anesthetic and other drugs exiting your system, mixed with your baseline fears taking over in your subconscious.

I found my freaky post-op dreams quite entertaining. In fact, for a couple of them and once awake, I tried to return to sleep to get back into them.

People pay serious money for those kind of whacky moments!

I think I was a female version of Lawrence of Arabia in one of them!

I have!!!! But I am not even sleeved yet, as my date is getting closer and closer I am more and more nervous. So I had this dream the other night that I had my surgery and right after that I started to sip on DietCoke and it went down so well and I had some fatty cheese and I was surprised in my dream that it did not hurt much just a little. I woke up in sheer horror! It was horrible...

Sounds just like nicotine dreams after you quit tobacco. After I quit chewing and smoking several years ago, I did occasionally have dreams where I dipped tobacco or was smoked and just felt awful about it the next morning.

I still have these dreams of eating things I should not or bingeing. I wake up and am so relieved,that if was just a dream. It must be my subconscious of fears. I thought I was the on,y one having these dreams.. I am 11 weeks post op and had one this weekend.

Oh geez, I already dream about food, and my surgery date isn't set yet! I had one the other night, but I had fallen pursue hard off the Wagon of my pre- pre-op diet! I have been trying to lose a few to show the Doc that I am indeed in the right frame of mind, well one telecom that went to 8 pm and driving home starving, well I stopped and fell victim to my vices diet coke and a cheeseburger. That night I dreamt all night about eating bad for you foods and felt just awful in the morning. .. And this is before the sleeve! Hold on to your butts! This is going to get interesting!
