AHHHHH!!! HEAD HUNGER!!!! I am definitely getting hungrier as the days go on, but being a lifelong overeater I distinctly know the difference between being hungry and wanting to eat.
I do webcasts for a living . After my 11:30 webcast this morning I ripped open a chicken salad kit and didn't even take it to the kitchen to drain the can of chicken. I was starving. I chewed very well, but I literally ate that thing in about 5 minutes. There were no issues with it going down whatsoever.
That filled me up nicely and after I ate, I ran to the store to pick up a few items. Now that I'm back at my desk my head hunger is out of control! Thank God I don't have any snacks in my office because I would probably be ripping through them right now.
What in the world? Why do I feel like this? I feel like an animal or something. I feel like the strong sensible part of me is sitting here shaking my head a myself while holding back the wild child inside me that's screaming, "I WANT SOMETHING TO EAT" Wierd. Be stong sensible one, be strong.
It's definitely time for an adjustment!
Ahhhh You reached the infamous BANDSTER HELL! I have read so much about it and it sounds like it's reared it's ugly head upon you. I hope it gets easier. When is your first fill slated for? I start my 2 week Optifast Preop tomorrow and I-am-so-dreading-it. Keep strong and eat a healthy snack later if you can.
