My brain keeps telling me I am going to die if I dont eat soon

I realize I sound crazy. I KNOW that I will be fine so long as I try to drink my water and shakes and have popcicles but I cant help that part of my brain says...... danger warning it has been over a week since you ate food. Yesterday I managed to eat a pureed egg in 2 sittings but then I only got one shake in but almost all my water. Can someone please help me stop freaking out?

LOL...I know this is not funny...but I got a giggle out of it anyway...

I also had this conversation with my brain...trying to tell me what to do...I told my brain to STFU...I am in charge here and I will NOT trade what I want most for what I want at the moment.

Good luck with your ongoing conversations...I hope you prevaile....lol

Why aren't you eating? Even if you're still on a fluid diet, you should be able to have sugar free jello, cream soups, etc

I am supposed to drink 3 Carnation instant breakfasts and 60 fl oz of water each day. I can have broth and jello but I always feel so full after the first shake I dont want anything else. I just ordered more Unjury chicken soup but it wont be here for a few days. I am jusy having an internal panic attack. Is this normal? Do other people have this anxiety or should I get my head examined? I am only on day 8.

Yeah, I went through something similar. Plus, I just wanted to chew something! I just did what I could to remind myself that the protein shakes and liquids are food, just not the kind I'm used to, and otherwise tried to keep myself busy and distracted.

I get that way sometimes--still.

Sometimes  I really need to eat something not-sweet.  Do you have any unflavored protein powder?  That in some tomato soup is a nice change.  I also like the Campbells squash soup with protein powder.

good luck and hugs

I do not like it myself, but are you allowed to chew sugarless gum?

It is normal to feel this way. I wanted something to eat, not just drink. You can make it, I promise it'll be all over before you know it. You'll be back to eating in a snap.
