lol i am dreaming of food

i don't understand this why am i dreaming of food  and one of my favorites pancake with strawberries and whip cream, and pasta and sauce with cheese ....oh my and then when i a wake i am hungary, so i get something to drink but i can only drink a little bit how can i be hungary but not eat a lot. iguess it must mean i am really starting to feel better.   teresa

Well... some of it is natural hunger from not eating. and then... Some of it is head hunger... the early transition from our "usual" eating patterns and all that goes along with it as far as our emotions connected with eating is in a huge transition... almost  like shock. I remember the first "meal" I had when I went to full liquids then soft foods. I began to realize that food was for nourishment,  not filling the physical or emotional void. All new stuff in the beginning. And yes.. the moment you put something in.. wow.. a full feeling. Odd sensation it was for me. Who knew one could get full? You are doing well. baby steps. of course, this is just my experience... some may have different experiences. take what works for you.. leave the rest.

hi!..i had the same thing happen, i had my surgery on 08/20 and i am doing great!..but i dreamt about food the first week..but now it is gone..i just started tihs morning with a scrambled egg...kept it down no prob...hang in there!..my first post-op appointment i lost 23 lbs!...wow!!!!

I have 'user dreams' too!!  I even dream that I start smoking again and I quit 14 years ago!!!  I look forward to these dreams....I can have my cake and eat it too!!  It doesn't mean that I am going to fail....as a matter of fact, I am doing rather well with my eating......I say sit back and enjoy!!
