SpaceDust 585 Posted June 29, 2013 Hi all. New here. Just found out last week that my surgery is THIS Tuesday. Woke up nervous and anxious this morning. Welcome! There are several of us with surgeries on Tuesday. I know I'm having some nerves, too, and it led to some odd dreams last night!

KimberlyT 22 Posted June 29, 2013 Welcome! There are several of us with surgeries on Tuesday. I know I'm having some nerves' date=' too, and it led to some odd dreams last night! Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 using VST[/quote'] Holy cow...I thought I was the only one having weird dreams!!!!!!! I hate being nervous because I am usually all in control of my feelings. I have read other forums and don't want to "grieve" food because I seriously won't grieve the fat that comes off!!!!! I guess I will lose my go to "comfort". However, I think what I will miss more are the family meals. How awful that we southern women tend to measure our success by how well people eat from our table!!!!!!

tashiepurple 5 Posted June 29, 2013 Hi- i am scheduled for July 29 in Plano, Texas by Dr. Cribbins. I don't have a pre-op liquid diet - just low fat/no fat/no meat diet. I have been learning so much from reading the posts. Thanks for sharing! 1 MaddieJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mayfly 18 Posted June 29, 2013 Today I'm having "what am I DOING??" feelings. I've been on the pre-op diet since Monday and OMG. I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever get to eat again. Tell me, after you recover from surgery do you feel normal and happy when you have a meal? I mean, it can't feel like "and then I was never able to eat again". Right? Oh, man, this diet...
