Grumpy, starving, head case

Jan 16, 2013

Today is the second day of my liquid diet.  My sleeve date is 01/29/13.  I am not physically hungry but mentally struggling with the no "REAL" food thing.  I really am fully educated, prepared, and aware of what I have signed on for but my heart seems to be starting to grieve for the food that I will not be eating (which I am logically ok with and had already made peace with...or thought I had) This liquid diet thing is smacking me right in the face as a reminder of how deep my issues with food are and how much I rely on food. Not sure if I need to sign up for therapy  ASAP or ride this wave of panic and despair.  Just as I used to kind of plan my days around food ..I have found myself saying to people when we are talking about weekend plans and such "Well I dont know...I'll be on my liquid diet so I'm not sure how I will feel."

Two weeks to sleeve date seems like a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG time!  Anyone else dealing with this or experience this?
