Congratulations on not smoking that is wonderful. Already you added a few more days to your life :thumbup: You should be proud that you were able to stop because thats hard. I myself have an addiction to sweets and already I have cheated and dipped my finger in my kids cupcake icing and ran my finger across the ice cream top for a taste.(more than once) Now today makes one week for me I was banded on 6/29 and I was also wanting to see a instant difference in my weight. I weighed in at 202 on the morning of surgery and today I'm at 196.9. Thats good I guess. I too don't know whether I'm hungry or not either. Also this liquid diet is getting on my last nerves especially since my mother is here visiting cooking all my favorites for her grandkids.I have too be strong or stronger than I hsve been and you too just focus and heal and you be be okay too.
