munchies...what do you do?

UGH!  I am 12 days post op and have munchies from he!!.   Still on a liquid protein diet until next week but omg I am going nuts.  I don't have a sweet tooth just munchies.  Even if I could eat a carrot that would help.  So what are some of you recent operee's doing for the munchies?

chew it up and spit it out.  That might work. I promise if you swallow, you will puke though.  This is NOT the best answer but it may help.

This may not be what you want to hear because I remember being in that stage.  I love to crunch on Soni****  You could also freeze crystal light.  I found that if I can just chew on something it helps and Soni**** is just so good to me.  You can even buy it in the bag.  Good luck and remember that this phase is not forever.  Have a great day and God bless, Penni

AMEN to Soni****!
I sent Dean and Catie to sonic every day for their ice...2 big cups to last all day.
it was the way I got through the process.
chewing on ice helps with the fluid intake you must try and get each day and relieves the need for chewing!
good luck!
hang in there!

I am not post op but have found Quick Trip "crushed" ice is a real good one too.  I do not have access to either one but do when I go the "the city".

Unfortunatly I cannot do the ice.  I have sensitive teeth on both sides and ice would out me through the roof.  Sighs!
