I did a juice fast once, and all I remember was wanting to CHEW on something! LOL! Good luck!

That was my most difficult part of this entire process, I need the crunch. I am assuming you are post operation? I know words don't always help but truly it will all come back and you will be fine. Soon enough you will be able to get your crunch and then weightless will be exciting. It's all worth it, that's why we did is.

I remember feeling this exact same way. I was just like, "Dear God, just give me something with texture ... anything ..." It was like my teeth were going soft and mushy like all the food I was eating. I was actually nervous the first time actually having to "chew" something.

Silly, but real.

This too, shall pass.

One time during my post op this happened to me. I chewed up something crunchy (can't remember what now) but then spit it out into a napkin....sounds gross but it helped the chew craving.

Try a piece of gum

Gum is not crunchy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry. I feel the OPs pain, as I am preop liquids right now and I tend to yell when I'm hungry.

I had to chew and spit too couldn't take it !
