Overeating since im gonna have surgery

[Smilejoelle1 19]

Hi in just wonder if as anyone has gained wait waiting for their pre op diet to begin? I feel like I went from trying to lose weight to saying goodbye to food.< /p>

Me too! Before jumping into bed I grab two Oreos that I did not need! Ugh

I am totally with you. I went in for my 3rd appointment today and was up in weight. I had the same realization, that I was already mourning my loss of food by eating more than I usually do.

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

Thanks for chiming in guys, I appreciate it that I haven't fallen off the deep end completely. I do think I need to pick up a copy of the for dummies book!!

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 :-)

I did a goodbye tour too right up until night before surgery. My doc didn't require preop liquid diet.< /p>

laaaaaaawd how I crave for some cheddar baked biscuits and my favorite Cajun chicken Alfredo!!!! lol please eat a biscuit for me

I did the same thing. It's very common. Just remember the mourning for food will continue after surgery and you will be mad because you cant go out and eat anything you want when everyone around you can. Good luck to all of you. This is a mental as well as very physical journey

Omg that's what I get when I go it is anazinggggg. Lol I will be sad when I can't eat those things anymore but after I learn what good meals to prepare I think I will be content not eating like I am now.

Eventually you will be able to eat anything you want. Your head will tell you take one more bite it is SOOOO GOOOD. However you take that bite and your stomach proudly says that was the dumbest thing you have ever done and your punishment will be to send it in reverse. Trust me after throwing up a few things you learn to listen to the tiny voice in your stomach - he is always right over the voice in your head. Please remember you will eventually be able to eat anything you want, but the key is learning Portion Control.< /p>

I am so happy someone said this! I've been feeling ashamed as I've been in the goodbye tour as well! I thought I was the only one. Thank you!
