Kim..... my DH and I were sitting here discussing this exact subject just before I decided to get on here and found your post. Weird? I don't think so. I think we have all been through this and thought we were the only ones. I use to go to bed thinking what I would have for breakfast and get up thinking about what I would fix for dinner. Food was a constant on my mind. I'd watch the "Biggest Loser" and eat like they were going to put me on the show next and take all my food. I don't enjoy food ow, but I do enjoy trying on smaller clothes and looking nicer than I have in years. Before GBS I hated getting dressed and going anywhere. Nothing fit right, nothing looked right, and I was miserable. Now I even put makeup on just to go to the grocery store. I think of food the same way I think of my vitamins and iron. It's something I have to put in my body, so until the joy of eating comes back, that is what I will do. Actually, the thought of having a love affair with food again scares the s*** out of me. Hang in there Kim, we are all thinking of you and are just glad that someone spoke up.
