Pre op fears

[ganier14 7]

Hello everyone. I am new to this app. My name is Thomas. I'm 37 yrs old. 5ft 11in. 330 lbs. I am having the sleeve done Jan 29th 2015. I am having major fears right now cause I am still eating bad. Any suggestions for help.

Are you supposed to start a pre op diet yet? I ate like a pig through the holidays and had lots of food funerals before starting my ore op diet Monday (surgery is 1/19) Do you have food addictions? Or are you just eating badly like you always have (if that makes sense?)

My Pre op diet appointment is 1/20. My surgery is 1/29. I am not a food addict I think. More of an emotional eater. But things have been getting better. But from the group therapy session I been going to. I'm fearful of the 1 or 2 ounce meals for 6 months.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but from what I read on here, you won't want or be able to eat more than 2-3 oz and they all seem to be fine with it

I agree. I heard that also. I guess I will see. I'm keeping a positive mind. I'm ready for change

You'll do fine. My friend has the sleeve in sept and she is never hungry!
