One week post op today and I am craving pickle juice or green olives SO BAD!!! It use to be a favorite of mine for years but I was really hoping to kill that craving. Nope, still there. The juice or olives or vinegar was my go to for stomach bug. It always calmed it down. Weird.

I use to eat a lot of pickles/gherkins prior to the op and craved them afterwards.

I ate a small one and urgh.. didn't enjoy it at all and haven't had one since!

Is pickle juice off limits for you? I had it during the liquids stage to help keep me sane; I would freeze it for something salty to crunch on.

No they are not off limits the juice anyway but I go overboard with them and always have. One of my favorites ( pre surgery years) is 1 piece of bread with butter a slice of cheese them the pickle. Yum. Loved that combo.

My doctor recommended I drink a shot of pickle juice for the foamies.

I eat jalapeño stuffed olives all the time. It's a joke in my house now that I crave a piece of cheese and an olive. It satisfies any craving I have and curbs hunger especially at night.

I know the salt isn't good but I limit myself to 2-3 jalapeño stuffed olives at a time.

Yum. Salt may not be good but comparing to what I ate before starting this new life I'd take that any day over 10 double stuffed oreos and glass of milk. Not to mention then I needed salt to mask all the sweet so ate chips n dip. Hmmm now I see a pattern lol.
