[melrey521 5]

8 weeks post op and am constantly craving salt, I have never liked chips and now want them often because of the salt. Anyone else experience this?

Yes. I told the Dr I just wanted to lick an Olive. He said go ahead. Lol

I think it's because there are so many sweet things pre and post surgery.

I just crave savory things now

We're in the same boat. Im 8wks out and last week its like i woke up and wanted nothing but a bag of plain lays potatoe chips, and i got them to. I can only eat a couple but it satisfy that craving. And i dont kick myself because i dont feel like im cheating. Im not on a diet, its a life change and every now and then, i can have a treat. If i deny myself ill really go off my rocker

I don't "crave" salt but I do find myself adding salt at the table to a lot of things, especially soup/stew out of the crock pot.

That is the same advice Popeye's marital counselor gave him.

I am 9 weeks out, I bought a bag of Pork rind cracklings. Really nice to have that crunch.

I have never craved salt before this surgery and all I want is salt now! Our body does tell us what we need... Maybe it is to get us to drink more

I feel the same way about craving salty Snacks. I used to crave sugary treats but it is the opposite after the gastric sleeve! They do say that taste buds change after surgery.
