Someone, anyone.. I had my surgery on the seventh of this month and since I've been home I can only think about food. I'm hungry and miss regular food. Is there anyone out there that can give me advice about staying away from food, or what can I do to stop "obsessing" over regular food. I'm still on my liquid diet it's only been a couple days and it's already so hard! Help?!!

I understand where you are coming from I'm 13 days post op and my brain and big pouch are telling me I'm hungry. We need to understand that we are addicted to food and that it will take a long time to retrain our selfs to live with out food as a crutch. Last week I was at the braking point I needed food but with my wife there to kick my butt and the people on this Fourm and along with my support group I got over it. There are all kinds of people here to help and to listen just ask.

Support groups are not for everyone check in your area .they help me to understand that I am addicted to food and are helping me to cope with out food as my crutch

Hang in there and remember why you went though RNY

Stay strong and good luck it gets better.
