Well it's Sunday morning, I am 5 days into my liquid diet and three days away from my surgery. Its been pretty hard. But this morning is really hard. My wife just made pancakes and bacon for her and the kids and the smell is almost too much to take. I think I’m going to go to work and finish up a few things just to get away from the smell........

I agree. Post op I can watch anyone eat anything and it doesn't really bother me.

Me too! I sat at dinners out several times on the liquid phase of my diet without issue.

And after I watch other people pig out and eat a massive plate of food...what did I miss? Being miserable and bloated??

I actually sit there a bit excited that I'm not preoccupied with food. I'm more preoccupied with my lack of preoccupation about food.

Maybe I need help .........
