Overeating since im gonna have surgery

[Smilejoelle1 19]

It's typical. My preop diet starts on the 22nd and I've been eating everything in sight and saying goodbye :-( lol thankfully my ins doesn't require me to lose or maintain weight prior to surgery. Tomorrow I'm hitting up red lobster :-)

Ohhh, cheddar biscuits!

Lol yes! I don't like seafood Andy boyfriend loves it. I found the Cajun chicken Pasta and I was in heavennnnnnn. And thank you music! That will definitely help going through this!

Oh yea!!! I said goodbye to all my favorite foods one by one...as they went into my tummy lol

This was too funny. I'm laughing away.

I referred to it as my food funeral, and many people go through the same thing. Just remember as yummy as the food is, those extra pounds you gain you will have to fight to take off-not nearly as fun or easy. BTW-the smaller your liver is (the biggest reason for pre-op diets) the easier it is for your Surgeon to safely conduct the surgery.

I would say goidbye to caffeine sooner than later. It will give you a massive headache. Quit it before you have to stop migrane pills. Once you get past the 72 hrs of killer headache you feel better

I didn't have to do preop diet either. Surgery went very well too. Good luck with your surgery

I went through a huge food funeral for the month before I started my liquid diet. I made a list of all of my must-have foods and went to town. I gained 10 pounds, which really sucked because it is just 10 pounds more I have to lose now. BUT, it was so good at the time and what I need to do to help me deal with what I call my "food divorce" now.

I totally agree about the caffeine. It was actually the first thing I did when I started my weight loss process. I figured it would be best to have soda far behind me by the time surgery came around. So while I am enjoying the food I can eat now I am still trying to make important changes. I feel like I am having my food funeral but I don't make every meal one.

I had surgery aug 29 2012 and before I was thinking should I practice to eat less and practice to not eat certain foods anymore or just pig out because I never will be able to again but I decided to pig out an I am glad I did. food isn't the same anymore because you can't eat three pieces of pizza anymore plus three breadsticks. I can only eat half or one slice! It's amazing and you'll see. At first I was like no way this will work for me but it has!

[mom2lucky (suznc) 81]

Cmarie you are so right. I went out tonight to try filet mignon for first time since since surgery and 7 ozs might as well of been a roast! I could hardly eat 1 oz because I also had 2 shrimp (out of 4). The steak was very tender & i chewed well so pouch was good with it. Good news is I can have it again over the next few days. Lol

I am getting the save way. I am just getting the ball rolling but i notice now i am more emotional with my eating. Before i would limit myself on not eating certain things or on the amount, lately i just go at it....
