Not stupid at all!! My family isn't too sensitive, and they've been eating KFC and Taco Bell right in the same room, and it smells delicious.  When I COULD eat that stuff, I rarely did, but smelling it makes me want to rip it out of their hands!!!

But, then you sit back and realize that you've been given a gift, an opportunity, and you gotta work it. *hug* We all feel your pain!!

thanks for your support. i feel better today.  lots of idle time though!!  in a much better mood.  i worked hard to get this done i need to embrace it instead of thinking of all the french fries and tacos i am missing.

 I also had surgery on August 3rd and think that i am doing well, but I am not getting in enough protein or water.  The thought of eating what I can eat makes me nausea but then I see a bacon cheeseburger or smell a friends lunch and think I would love to eat that.  The good news is I know I can't eat it so I dismiss the thought quickly.  

I feel like I am eating and drinking all day, but I never feel full.  I hope my pouch is not too big already!  I can am eating 4 oz. of cottage cheese with no problem.    I haven't tried to eat more than 1/2 cup.
