I'm 6 days post op and am still on liquids. I've been doing great - my only "cheat" was taking a lick of pasta sauce off my finger when I made my family dinner last night. I'm getting in 60g of protein via shakes and drinking as much as I can but lately I've been craving cakes & cookies hardcore. I just woke up from a quick nap and vividly remember sinking my teeth into a warm chocolate chip cookie. Am I going crazy? I never used to dream about food. Is this something I should prepare to get used to???

Side note, I was at my niece's birthday party over the weekend and drooling over the dessert table, which was filled with cookies and cake, and I've had a hard time forgetting about it. I'm resolved to stay strong and resist the urge to cheat, but this is harder than I though with my dreams betraying me!

Everyone dreams about food when they can't eat. When you can eat something and chew, it should go away.

Hahaha yeah post op liquid stage dreams are pretty normal from the sound of it. I had some crazy food dreams. It goes away once you start being able to chew again! Stay strong(and don't watch cooking shows ; )

I dreamt about carne Asada fries a week ago. Lol.

Oh it is normal. Lol I had a dream that was sooo real I thought I had eaten ice cream. My dream was me walking through a Supermarket and I cam to a giant freezer with every one of my favorite Edy's Ice Cream. I had a spoon. I opened each ice cream and took a spoonful and ate it. I then closed the ice cream and put it back neatly. I backed away slowly as to not get caught lol.

Our love of foods really play with our emotions lol.
