Today is post op day 4. Today I am having food cravings and feel like my hunger is not satisfied. I want pizza. I want garlic bread! Surprsingly, I don't want my typical cravings like chocolate and frosting and ice cream.

I am allowed to eat three 2 oz "meals" a day plus protein shakes. Fill in with jello, water, broth, sugar free Italian ice.

When my husband went through this 4 years ago he didn't have any cravings and was never hungry.

What is this? Is it all mental?

I'm sure it's mental and habits. I'm on purée food now and I had a hard time on certain days of my liquid stage. I'm doing much better now.

I'm 3 days post op and I have been feeling the same thinking about a steak real bad. I'm banking it will get better. Once we are on purée it will be better this liquid diet is messing with our brains lol

I have wanted toast, which is not actually something that I would eat on a regular basis. Random. I am sure it's all in my head.

Do you guys seriously puree your meat? That just sounds disgusting!!!!

I won't be purée meat but I'm looking forward to change of the menu.
