Hungry

It's been over a week since the surgery and today is the first time that I felt hungry. I am trying to stick to low calorie liquids because I like the rate at which the numbers on the scale are falling. I am still getting to know my band. I miss those first few days post-op where my band even restricted fluids, and I was told that the band would loosen as the weight comes off. I should expect the restriction to lessen, but I crave it now. I crave that full feeling after three small sips of fluid. I know the band will loosen and I will be able to eat food in small quantities but I'm not ready. I don't want real food yet, I want soft foods and liquids. If I get to start eating real food then I will have to be more accountable of the types of food I consume. If I make a poor choice it won't be anyone's fault but my own. It's easy to say that you're going to change your life, it's harder to really implement those choices. To make the right decisions when faced with the wrong ones.
