Okay - I'm dying here and it is only the first day!!! Holy crap did I underestimate how hard this would be. It isn't just the hunger either - that is bad enough, but it is the physical act of chewing. I feel like I want to bite anything - and the idea of a salad or crunchy carrots is almost enough to make my eyes roll up in my head. I have problems - I mean, serious issues. I think I have to go buy some gum to try and ease the chewing thing. Plus, protein shakes and all suck. Seriously suck. I mean, even the few that taste all right, are just that - a drink that doesn't taste like butt. And just drinking stuff is wrong. Human beings are meant to EAT. This is unnatural. And wrong. I find my surgeon suspect. This isn't necessary - this is to satisfy my surgeon's sadistic streak. All right - I know that it is necessary and I know the surgeon is right, but still... this sucks. And I have ten more days.... I am going to go bite things - for my husband's sake I hope I find some gum. :biggrin:

Buy some SF popsicles and be creative with your drinks use a blender and ice and SF flavors. You will be amazed

Hey - thanks for the support! I decided to write this blog mainly for myself to get the emotions and all out, and maybe for someone else who is going through the same thing to say, hey! someone else who feels the same! But I was surprised that it got read so quickly. Anyway, thanks for the posts and thanks for the suggestions about ice and blender and all. I did that for "dinner" tonight and it wasn't that bad. I mean, not great or anything, but still... infinitely better than what I had been drinking to that point. And it made me feel more full than anything else I had tried all day. So I think that is the solution for me - but we'll see. I have a feeling this is going to be a LLOONNGG ten days! :thumbup:
