I am new to this whole blog thing. I had my band surgery on Jan 7th I have to say it was very pain full, thank goodness for pain meds. I didnt think this would be as hard as it is. I never relized how addicted to food I was and how much I do miss eating. This liquid diet is the hardest thing I have ever done, watching my family eat is total torture. I even cried today because I am mentaly drained. I am so use to being able to eat when I was feeling down or stressed or even bored, I feel like it is all been taken away from me. I must be going through withdrawals, it is not fun at all. I try to stay positive and usually at the end of the day I relize that it is going to be worth the wait. I keep dreaming of being in a size 10 or a size 8. I can say I have lost so far 10 lbs yay wooohooo. I am so gald I joined this site as I need support through all of this. I dont think I will ever look at chicken and beef broth the same ever again. Does anyone have any tips on how to handle the mental part of just wanting a pieace of food of some sort instead of all these damn liquids???:thumbdown:

The way I handle it is coming back to this site and reading people blogs, and saying to myself. Wow!! Im not crazy after all!! Other people are going through what I am going through. Its very hard. I been band 10-29-08 and its still hard. Especially watching someone eat something really good, and fast and knowing I can't do that any more.

:ohmy:

:rolleyes::thumbup:
