Having Second Thoughts :(
We all go through it!!!!! I went through it. I was sad too thought I would never eat again. I'm 2 months out. And I can eat whatever I want just very small portion. Don't worry it will get better. You will heal inside and ur will be easier to take in food. And eventually you will be able to eat food you liked. Also some foods you miss now when you try them now you don't even want them anymore. I loved soda. I tried it now and yuck. I loved mc Donald's fries I tried it now yuck. I'm eating healthy and not suffering like in the past I'm actually enjoy it. Only thing I eat once in a while that is not healthy is a slice of pizza (all I can eat and feel satisfied) its a great experience physically mentally emotionally. Soon you will be very very happy you did it!!!!!!! I'm down 26 lbs and feel awesome. You too will feel this way!!!

Movie Snack Suggestions
Don't associate food with entertainment. Eat before you go n just enjoy the movie. I went to see titanic I thought I was going to have a hard time. But I did just fine. Took my Protein shake and that was that. U are stronger than the food.
