Yup, that not chewing is a...I totally feel your pain. I actually chewed on some cheese from some pizza and spat it back out. Once you get outta the liquid stage you appreciate food so much more - the taste, feel and texture, and amazingly a lot less of it! I actually want to eat healthy food instead of junk (except for the occasional cravings of a little sugar or salt)
BTW- try and drink SF juices, or SF lemonade, tea, crystal light, etc. You don't need added liquid calories, they keep you craving more sugar and they kill weight loss. Once you get out of week 1 (which it looks like today is 7 days out for you) you can eat SF pudding, and other mushies which help with the need to chew. At between week 2-3 I was eating plain cream of wheat with some SF maple syrup and it really filled me up and satisfied my need to chew (I didn't have to chew my food, but it somehow satisfied me)
Some have tried gum too, but that tends to add more unnecessary air in your tummy which has enough already...but for some it works ok.
