Is anyone else having trouble with the liquid diet the first 6 weeks after surgery???

My surgery was 9/24/02. I am having a very hard time (some days) with the liquid diet. While I knew this surgery wasn't going to be a walk in the park, I miss being able to crunch and chew my food. Some days it gets to be worse than others. Going from the clear liquid stage to the full liquid stage was a good move, but 2 days later, I feel the same way again. I try to keep my mind on other things but by the end of the day it comes back to the subject at hand. Is there any thing to do to help calm this feeling?? I can't wait for the 6 weeks to end!!!! I really have a better appreciation for the food I was eating then versus what I'm able to eat right now. Someone help! This seems like it's going to be the longest 6 weeks of my life!
