you will still have oprotunities eat anything u want after surgery,so you don't need to say good by..all your foods will still be there... i even fell into some 'food commas' from eating too much...i managed this both b4 & after surgery. the urge has largly gone away,that's good. i don't know why i had these food orgies after surgery...just to make sure i could i suppoze...so i found out for you, you can. don't worry about it, food will still be there.
