We all experience this. Today I made sauage bites to have later and the smelll is overwhelming. but I have not given in to try one just yet. I was a huge grazer and boredom is a big one that I have to manage. I am not hungry so I don't need to eat so I will just read some post and wait until it is supper time to try them. "Yoda...I need some help from the force here :P

That's where I'm having the most trouble. Boredom. Seeing everyone else eat makes me miss it. I only have 10 more days on liquids then my surgery. So I try to focus on the outcome.

When I was on my 2 week liquid diet I thought I was never gonna make it! But I found staying busy and not being home much or around food kept my mind occupied on other things rather than food!! I will say the closer I go to being sleeved the more food became my last worry! I am now 8weeks out and very happy with the decision to be sleeved. Good Luck 2 you...

Yup you betcha! I'm out 1 year and have head hunger like you won't believe. . . i satisfy it every now and then, could be why i'm losing slower now, but at least i'm not gaining right? Good luck! and just know that it's only a temporary thing, soon you'll be able to eat whatever. . . in smaller amounts of course.

Thanks for your help. Makes it easier knowing I'm not alone.

Yup, I agree...everyone goes through it. After surgery it's another 2 weeks of more liquids and it doesn't get any better until you get on the different stages of texture etc.... You will get through it We all have and it wasn't easy but we did it. I actually chewed up a piece of pizza and spit it out....so I totally know what you are going through. Good luck to you!!

I am on day 5 of my liquid diet - I have to do it for 14 days. The first 2 days were the worst. Each day is getting better. I have found if I have 10 grams of protien about every two hours my hunger is so much more under control or if I drink a large glass of Water when I feel hungry then the Water will fill me up.

My Procedure day is on the 10th so we are both on the same track. Hang in there - we can do this - think about the end result!

I didnt have to go on a liquid diet before surgery! Wonder why not?
