Anyone Else Having or Had Food Dreams/Nightmares?

Today is Day 5 of my Pre op liquid diet and so far I've had two food dreams. The first one I couldn't stop eating gooey chocolate chip Cookies, fresh from the oven. Last night I dreamt I was at a restaurant and ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries and they messed up my order and brought me THREE! Of course, I ate them. At the end of each dream I feel terrible guilt, then I wake up, relieved it was all a dream!

Just wondering what others food dreams have been, or am I just weird? LOL!

I did! My first week post op I had dreams (nightmares) of eating chicken while I was still on clear liquids. I'd wake up in a panic- sweaty & breathing fast& terrified thinking "omg, I need to go to the hospital!" But then I'd realize it's just a dream. LOL

Lol ive had those too. I wake up all panicked and then laugh at myself

I had dreams the first two weeks after surgery about eating solid foods and woke up panicked that I hurt my sleeve! Scary stuff!

I have those dreams all the time!! It's when I'm really focusing on not eating certain foods... The other night I dreamed that I just COULDN'T STOP drinking a big cup of soda! And I paused and was like "wait this is bad for me! Oh well" *chug chug chug*. HAHAH!

I too had food dreams the 1st 2 weeks post op... I would eat solid food in my dreams and wake up in a panic that I had sabotaged my surgery and my sleeve. The good thing is that it went away and I have literally had head hunger once or twice in the past 7 wks!!! Best wishes to you
