Pre Op, So Depressed

[Jackie's girl 32]

I think we have all gone through these emotions, this s a huge step. I did a lot of crying pre op and guess what, I feel better now. It is a journey, be patient with yourself. We are all in this together.

Yup! Feels sort of like when I stopped smoking many years ago!! You keep finding yourself searching for something and then realize you are searching for food. Obviously we are all really hungry during the pre-op diet, but sometimes I am looking for something to eat even after having the shake and the "naked" salad that I am allowed. In other words, I think I am looking for food because I am bored and nervous! I suppose they say that the first step is to admit that you have a problem. Gotta start working on accepting that I have a problem, too - I suppose!
