Head Hunger.........whoa

Apr 17, 2010

Ok.  It is starting.... until now I didn't have any cares for any foods. Now since I have started back eating cottage cheese all foods I used to eat is starting to drive me crazy. I know I physically can not eat them, nor will I. But whoa... the feeling is real all of what you hear is true.  I knew to expect it but I thought because post-op early on I didn't I didnt' think it would come.  So here it is. I keep repeating, I have a new life.. and repeat the mantra Nothing taste as good as thin will feel.  I went to BINGO cause that's about all I am allowed to do right now... I walked in and I looked around and noticed the majority of this population could benefit from this surgery. I also watched and observed what they ate.  Cheeseburgers, hotdogs, chilidogs, french fries, potato chips, pizza, and more..  All the carnival food you would find... some ate constantly through the whole show.  My sniffer smelled the food and my head was like mmmmmmmmmmmmm then whooooooooooooaaaaaa  so I had a rational vs irrational argument with the self about this and I won.  I know I physcially can not eat these foods.  Someone who had the surgery two days after me said she had a family gathering with BBQ chicken, were on the liquid stage... and she couldn't resist and had just a taste of the BBQ sauce and became sick to her stomach.  I don't want to do that.  So, I am just taking it one step at a time.  I got home and had my 1 teaspoon of cottage cheese... it went down easy.  Cant wait for Thurs... I can have scrambled eggs and toast.. that is 1/2 of egg scrambled and 1/2 slice toast. oh well.   8 weeks will come soon enough... One step at a time
