So I was sleeved 7/28 I'm in the liquid stage of my diet. Had a very hard time getting the liquids down. Currently I'm only able to do 2 new direction shakes and Water through out the day. But although I'm not hungry I still have the urge to eat. I've cheated and ate 3 morsels of skinny popcorn. Afterwards I feel awful. For now I'm trying hard to get to 3 shakes a day but it's been difficult. Im loosing weight but not sure what to do about wanting to chew all the time. Any suggestions?

Just give it time and hang in there. In the mean time you can chew some ice. If you have any Sonic locations near you they have ice that is a great texture for chewing.

I felt the same way, it drove me crazy. Just know it's in your head and soon you'll be able to eat again. I remember the first soft food I had tasted like heaven.

Sonic ice, Sf Popsicles, pudding & Jello helped me during those 2 weeks.
