Hello, This is my first time posting on this forum. I went through my insurance company's 3 month program and am awaiting surgical approval. My problem in the meantime is ME. I have not gotten myself mentally prepared for this surgery and have been eatiing crazily (if that's a real word). I've found myself buying and eating a lot of foods "because after the surgery I'll never be able to have this again." Earlier this week my personal physican shocked my by telling me I have diabetes but I've still bought sweets and eaten them (he wasn't too concerned saying after I lose some of this weight the diabetes SHOULD be gone). I have only told a couple of people about this surgery and am ashamed to talk to them about how I'm eating. What is wrong w/me???!!!

Thank you all for your words/advice!! It truly means a lot and REALLY helps. I was sooo doubting myself as to whether this is a good choice for me.

Thank you, Holly. Believe it or not, your reply made me feel better. I've just felt horrible during this binge because none of my friends/family would understand (I don't even understand why). I really need to take a closer look at myself and I hope that what you said about post surgery will be true for me. Good luck with your own recovery!
