I understand exactly how you feel.. I was banded on Oct 20 and was on a liquid diet for 10 pryor.. I was absolutely starving. I know this sounds gross, but it really helped me.. I put crunchy foods in my mouth and chew to mush and then spit it out.. Then I drink my protein shake.. This helps me. I miss chewing on something.. It's a mind game..
Hang in there.. I 6 ft tall and I'm a big girl.. I hear people snicker behind my back.. I have been going through this process since Feb and I'm so ready to get this weight off. I have only told my husband, my dad, and 1 friend. I don't want anyone to know because I hear people say that we are taking the easy way out. This is so not easy.. This is going to be a ruff road and the hardest decsion I have had to make. I get upset when people tell me I put it on by myself and I should take it off by myself.. I'm awaiting my insurance approval and hopefully within the next month I will finally have my surgery.
I have the same issue.. I'm 42DDD and I recently purchased some from amazon.. I got 3 different colors in the pack. Black, White, Ivory.. Also, they were for 4 hooks..
