So I'm 5 days post op and every commercial, billboard, etc. is about food!!!! I really need some help, because as I sit here and sip my broth and jello, I'm thinking I made a huge mistake.

I spent my early post-op time watching Diners' date=' Drive-Ins and Dives. For some reason, that made it easier for me to deal with the shakes and broth during the liquids to mushies stages. Now, you couldn't pay me to eat most of the food featured on that show. The portion sizes are still outrageous in my mind![/quote']

I did the same. I spent all my days watching the food network and flipping through cook books for some odd reason it really helped me. Now when I look at people eat I say to myself WOW are they eating waaayyyy to much food!!! I just look at food differently. NOW I eat to live not live to eat.
