Day 4 and the return of hunger
I know this sounds hard to believe, but today is the first time since surgery that I've been truly hungry. I've been tempted by the brownies in the cookie jar, the pizza in the fridge and the candy in the candy dish. I really want to EAT. Instead, for breakfast I had a pumpkin "shake" (skim milk, slim fast powder, pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice) and I had coffee with skim milk as a mid-morning snack. The problem is, I still feel REALLY hungry. Now I realize that the band is not currently filled, so there is no restriction and, therefore, no effect on my level of hungriness. But it feels like a rip off after all I've been through. Reminding myself I have just four more days of this liquid diet then I see the doctor again. I don't think they fill yet, but at least I'll get to talk to the doctor. I have to just go one day at a time...for today that's taking my liquid diet and no cheating!
