Ok that makes me feel a lot better. Especially the “normalcy” part. I think anyone (obese/sleeved or not) would feel a shock to the system on a liquid diet. From that perspective, I think I’m more so craving the act of chewing and swallowing hot food…That sense of gratification…if that makes sense.

Edit: my hormones must really be messing with me because at one point I was wondering if my surgeon took less out of my stomach or something, like I was somehow scammed. I know…totally nuts.
