Dear Food.... I miss you

[Bandme1 12]

Dear food,

I miss you very much. I have been hanging out with your friend liquids for a while and just like fish and company, it got old and stinky after 3 days. I miss crunching and chewing. I stared longingly at my dog as she crunched away on her kibble. Oh, to crunch again! What does that feel like again? I don't think I even remember.

My friend/enemy scale tries to make me feel better by dropping her numbers to throw me a bone, and while that's great and all.... I miss chewing. I think I might go make a paper chain like when I was a kid to count down the days until I can enjoy you again. I can't wait to kick this jerk Soup to the curb.

So, Food... while our passionate love affair is what got me into this situation in the first place, I'd like you to please come back and let's give things another shot, in moderation this time. Let's not get all crazy like last time. Come on home, please. You've been dearly missed!!

Sincerely,

Me

Thanks for the laugh this afternoon, I needed it.

You will get through it and it will soon be a distant memory. Trust me, I knew I had to turn off the tv during my recovery time when I thought the dog food commercials looked good.

Hang in there, it's all worth it.

Really?? lol. It's pork that is slow cooked until it just shreds and they put BBQ Sauce on it. It's divine.

...maybe I shoudlnt' have told you. I don't want anyone else to have to suffer these cravings too!! lol

This is hilarious!!!!!

The subway ads have been appetizing haven't they? It's the only ad on TV right now for food that actually appeals to me. All the rest seem to turn my stomach. Although, the Olive Garden ones that feature their Soup & salad are also starting to appeal to me.

You'll get through this. Perhaps making a snow cone or smoothie with larger chunks of ice that you "chew on" will help with the wanting to crunch something. I know it's not the same, but it could potentially help and wouldn't derail you.

I love your letter. I think I will be feeling the same way in about 6 hours once I am through with surgery. Yay! Surgery today at 10:45am Mountain time. Oh Yeah!!

Your letter is perfect! When I was in your situation I ate a lot of sugar free popsicles. Not a lot of "crunch" too them, but at least there was some chewing. Take heart...I am 14 weeks out and those days seem like a distant memory.

Sheila - All the best with your surgery today!
