I've heard sugar free popcicles help.  You get the sensation of chewing so you feel like you have eaten something.

I also had low fat cottage cheese, hummus, unsweetened apple suace, Swiss Chalet sauce as a soup, and....well, yeah, I remember that it did just mostly suck!

It was the hardest part of my whole journey.

STAY STRONG!

(And have a look at my blog if you want a laugh about some of my stories when I went pre-op.)

 What do you mix your shakes with? Also how much protien do they have..So there is no chewy food at all. Can you eat apple sauce,stuff like that...Hell I can't wait to start it just to see how I do,sounds weird i guess to some people but its gives you the insight as to what it will be like after surgery....
I hope your feeling a lot less hungry now and i bet you have lost weight...

I always mix my scoop of protein powder (35-40 g of protein, depending on the brand) with 1 cup of skim milk (9 g), 4 ice cubes and sometimes a banana. :)

I DO feel less hungry and I have lost weight - still going, please God.
