You Know You Could Die Right?

My husband and I are at the end of our pre-op check list.. We Have our EEG's this Saturday and we will be ready to schedule surgery dates a week later. But' date=' I guess knowing that it will be a while before I can have my favorite foods, I have been eating more than I ever have. I know I wont have a problem changing my diet once the Doctor schedules my surgery, but I just want to know is this normal? I feel almost like I havent had to really watch my diet as much because help is on the way... Then I feel so guilty... Anyone else have this issue before surgery?[/quote']

I didn't eat my favorite food before surgery. I now regret it. In the future since it's was from the restaurant UNO it's was mash potato with steak tips. Which I'm good now eating steak & mash but in a small amount. When I'm able to consume more food then I'll take my self out to eat. Not often gets pricy but it's really tasty.

I am a cheerleader so I have a lot of bone mass . I have always worn a 15/16 but when I gained weight I would wear a size 18 but they were kind of big . I'm really solid and have never had a lot of stomach ! Just thighs and booty ! I have big arms but they are the right size since u lift girls for a living .... But honestly.

Everyone carries their weight differently. Actually when I did weigh 190' date=' I wore at 13/14 ! So I guess everyone is different ![/quote']

I think your right. When I was small before kids. I was 135lbs size 13 and went all the way to size 18/19 211lbs now I'm size 13/14 I'm about 165lbs and when I was smaller I was this size. I had no stomach before kids. I have stomach now. It's it strange. I guess when I get down to 125lbs I'll be a size 7/8 I'm guessing.

Landensmommy' date=' THANK YOU FOR THIS POST! I just had ANOTHER heart to heart with my husband (who's 6'5 and 230- perfect) who can't seem to get past "You know what's healthy so why can't you just eat that?" It is impossible to explain the WHY of my food addiction to someone who has no unhealthy vices. So hurt and pissed.[/quote']

He sounds like my hubby. Why do people with no weight issues think it's so easy to stop eating eat less or suddenly eat healthy food? ???

I don't know! Maybe because they aren't emotionally attached to it...I like to think it's like picking a parking spot...just pick one...idk, it is REALLY annoying to me though bc I am emotionally attached to food...to be honest, I worry more about mourning food than being wheeled into surgery
