Cravings

Has anyone ever noticed that they are craving certain foods more now than before WLS??

I can tell you that I certainly do!!!!!

I've been craving Hungarian Cabbage Rolls so badly that I've wondered if I'm pregnant... lol..

Thank God that I'm not, but the cravings are the same.... So I've decided that I just HAVE to make up a couple of pans of Cabbage Rolls. My son and Hubby will not eat them... they hate cabbage.. .but I'm gonna stink up the house for them and have my fill, then freeze them individually so I can have one anytime I want... When they have a Pizza night or a take out night, I can have my cabbage roll...

Also, Lasagna is calling me... so guess what??? Two pans of yummy lasagna are going to be made this weekend and frozen for a quick meal during the week.

I have a crock pot of Chicken broth on the cook, so I'm going to make up a couple of batches of Chicken Vegetable soup and Chicken with rice soup...

I think this weekend is going to be a cook ahead weekend... something I really enjoy doing... this way I don't feel guilty... I can cook all I want and freeze the meals for those times during the week that I don't feel like cooking...

Anyone else do this?? or am I a 'Throw back' from another era?? lol..

Anyone else have any other ideas for cooking meals ahead of time?? I'm always interested in new recipes.

I have a real problem with eating beef these days... but thank goodness I can still eat ground beef!!! Those damn cabbage rolls are calling me!!!

lol funny you mention cravings cause I am 8days post-op and I am craving a huge BBQ Steak with mushrooms and onions!!! guess I'm getting tired of this liquid diet!! can't wait until I can have soft food at least like seafood salad and egg salad and chicken salad... all the yogurt and pudding and jello is making me sick to my stomach!!!

 I've been craving the same thing.  Big old steak with sauteed, salty mushrooms. Mmmmmmmmm I am so over this liquid diet too. I can't stand this beneprotien, I hate the boost, I hate the pudding and jello. Blah! If I never see creamed soup again it will be too soon.
