Head hunger ;(

 I want a cheese stick so bad just suck on it a lil might chew on it don't know any ideas what I should do ,

lol  I would melt some cheese and eat it softened.  

Don't do it! Your pouch is healing. I PROMISE this will get easier and once you transition to soft foods, it gets better and better (and you will get to chew again). Try some broth if you need some flavor. Good luck and hang on!

I know it seems like forever since you have had food.  I remember being SOOOOO ready each time we got to go to the next phase of our diet plan.  However, in the grand scheme of things, it is so short.  This is for the rest of your life.  If you are looking for something that isn't sweet, try soup, broth, etc.  I was thrilled to get cream of cheddar soup when I changed to full liquids because I wanted anything that wasn't sweet after all the shakes.  Look at your list of approved foods and see if you have other options.  Tomato juice?  V8?  Try hard to stick to your plan.  It really is worth it.

I remember those days and they can be agonizing but they will pass quickly. 

I used to chew on beef jerky and then spit it out.
