Stressing for food!

I've been on my pre-op liquid diet for 9 days and I am going nuts for some real food.  Some fattening deep dish pizza!  I've went for a walk, had some soup, rode my exercise bike and went for a car ride.  I don't have the craving as bad anymore, but I feel depressed.  Depressed because I have to end this unhealthy relationship with food.  I feel like I've lost a close friend.  Has anyone else felt like this?

Hon, you're not alone!  Every single one of us has felt that way.  Some on the LD, some post~op.  The "unhealthy relationship" WILL become healthy!  You learn that you eat to live not live to eat.  You learn that you can be satisfied with just a small amount.  You learn to identify when you are really hungry and when it is emotional/stress/mindless eating. 
One bit of advice: STAY AWAY FROM THE TV!!!  It's the temptress that will torment you!
Hang in there, keep your eye on the prize, it's not long now

Your detoxing and mourning your old lifestyle.... try to take it on and be strong.
We ALL wanted to eat and say screw it and cheat.  But your behavior now is a good indicator of after surgery behavior.
Take this seriously..... I know you are but tell food to **** off and thank it for getting you into this mess!


You are bigger ( lol ) than these cravings!   Its the devil calling ................. dont pick up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hang in there... we all did our time now its your turn!  You can do it I have all the faith in the world in you!
