I know that's what I keep saying' date=' I hope my husband didn't waste his money, I don't want to let him or myself down. I just want to stop thinking about food so much. I know I am just 9 days out, but will those thoughts ever go anyway?[/quote']

Hi again, I am now exactly 3 weeks out and my thoughts of food are waning tremendously! I got a little over zealous when eating a few things and it came right back up my esophagus. I learned my lesson! I am learning well to chew, chew, chew! I feel satisfied now after very little. When I start thinking about food again, I chew some almonds and I am satiated very well! I didn't lose a pound for 8 days and I began to worry, so I have stopped getting on the scale. I'll get on once a week and hopefully I will see losses, which will boost my confidence. I still have a problem with being hungry at night. I think it's because I'm not doing anything. I must learn to distract myself with things other than food.

I thought a big thing about the surgery is that you are not supposed to be hungry. Is your stomach growling or is it head hunger?
