I love them.

And when they are around, I eat them with no issue.

I don't remember the first time I had it after surgery though...maybe 3-4 months? And not by choice or avoidance or anything, just happened to be served a pickle slice and I ate it.

I like pickles. I just don't eat them much. I don't think I had tried eating pickles until I was 6 or 7 months out... I had no issues with them.

I eat them regularly, and love them.

I have recently developed a love of pickles. I find them very filling for something so low in calories. You have to check the ingredients, though -- some pickles are loaded with sugar. I go for Kosher dills because they don't have sugar, but I found out that sugar-free (artificially sweetened) bread and butter pickles exist and I can't wait to try them.

For some reason, I've been craving spicy food since my surgery (which is weird because I didn't really like spicy food before surgery), and I like to put Sriracha or hot sauce on my pickles.

Ate my 1st one about 6-7 months post op and had no issues. I wasn't really a fan prior to surgery. Now I love them and eat them at least once a week. I can only eat one spear and then I am full.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      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!!
