Whats the weirdest food related dream?

Whats the weirdest food related dream since getting sleeved?

Since a big portion of our new weightloss struggle is dealing with head hunger, I figure Im not the only one to get food dreams.

My dream yesterday was the weirdest so far.

I was with a coworker (whom i recognised as a real life employee at the company i work for but that i do not interact with). We are driving to my new property in the boonies of some small town. When we get there the house, which looks like a more run down version of the AHS 6 house, is locked and i apparently dont have keys. The rest of the crew (and my husband too i guess) are a couple of hours behind us.

We decide to drive up this crazy hilly road that dissapears behind the house. It takes us to a ramshackle resturant were we decide to get some food. Coworker and I both order sandwiches. Mine is some sort of chicken sandwhich, slightly smaller than a 6" from Subway. About 2/3rds of the way throu it I decide that I want another sandwhich, i am still hungry. I walk up to the counter and start looking at the menu.

For some reason the menu is hard to read/understand. The names and descriptions dont really make sense, so i cant decide what i want. I am hemming and hawwing, asking whats good from several people but get no sololid answer. I let a few people cut in front of me and they get food fast. After about 25 min of this indecision, i go to the bathroom. When i come out, some sort of buffet has been set up in the middle with different plates of food on plastic tables.

I ask the cook how much is the buffet and she takes a lookat what is out there (spiral ham dinner, pizza, chicken wings, potato skins) and quotes me $11. I pay her, smirking to myself, thinking i got a good deal because i didnt pay for the chicken sandwhich. I grab a plate and turn around and the "buffet" is decimated. There are just a few slices of cold pizza left, a few rubbery looking chicken wings, and half eaten eaten potato skin. I am confused by how fast the food dissapeared but i dig thru the pizza boxes for a few slices and grab a couple of wings.

I return to the table where my coworker, who has long finished his meal, stares at me with glazed over eyes, telegraphing boredom and contempt. I realize, looking down at my partially finishing sandwhich and cold pizza, that its been an hour since i got up to get more food.

And then I wake up.

I haven't had my surgery yet (11/17), but I had a dream last week that I forgot that I had surgery and 2 days later went to get some buffalo wings and after I ate them I realized what I had done, but it was too late. My stomach had already exploded... Anxiety much?

I woke up this morning convinced that I had raided the snack cupboard in my house and eaten a cookie. I'm five days post op-funny thing is that the first thing I felt was guilt! For something I hadn't even done!!

I had a couple food dreams pre-op while on the liquid diet and starving. In one dream I went to Carls' Jr and ordered one of those big 'ol juicy burgers. I got in a car and started speeding down the road. I was trying to avoid anyone I knew. I parked on some lawn of an unknown house and was enjoying the hell out of the burger. Then my husband came up to me out of no where and was staring at the burger questioningly. I knew I was caught but played it off. Then I saw a police car go racing past us, turn around, and come back towards us. And I woke up.

I haven't had any food dreams since surgery.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
