Difficult doesn't even come close to what it is. I remember one night thinking I was going to die if I couldn't eat something. I was fussing with the hubs and asking why the heck was I doing this.

But, I was reminded why I was doing this by a quick look in the mirror in my birthday suit- yep that is why.

It's hard, but it doesn't last long and you will forget how bad it is once it's over and you are eating again. All that difficulty will be worth it.

Hang it and keep holding on. Remember to drink, drink drink- it does help, even if you add some flavoring like crystal light.

Good luck with the surgery. In about 1-2 months, you'll say that was so easy. I did miss chewing. After the surgery and so many weeks of liquids, I got bored with choosing foods to eat. I still have a protein shake for breakfast everyday because I don't like eggs.

Dylanmiles23. Child I know exactly what you mean. I miss chewing so bad. Girl I would welcome a piece of fish right about now:). I am doing things to pass away time. I have started walking some, talking to my family just to pass the days away because now that I have this band I am definite not going to cheat because I do not want anything getting stuck. So I will be following the rules. Have a blessed day.
