Yes just pretend the liquid food is rocket fuel and power on through this stuff. Try and find other outlets for pleasure right now until your old favs come back on the menus. Nice smelling candles-- showers- walks in the park-- fav tv shows movies-- music a soft blanket- emails with friends-- buying flowers- Anything but food needs to be your focus right now. Its really hard but it will get better. Weird how obsessed with food everyone is isn't it?? I never realized it until it was taken away from me. ITs everywhere- people's whole lives revolve around it-- social functions revolve around i-- commercials on tv-- its non stop.. After awhile of being totally upset and frsustrated I actually just tried to enjoy the smell of food while I couldn't enjoy the taste or swallow of it-- and once I trained my mind toenjoy it and not let it torture me I was OK. NOT an easy task.

Feel for ya Debz! Hang in there babe.
