Waffles Anyone?

Ok, here I am going through many appointments where people are picking and poking and taking pics of my innards, and all of a sudden, I am getting cold feet, Waffling--- should I do this or not Look at the complications some people have what if I can't control my eating monster brain, what will my family (only told my adult children) think--- what about vomiting, sliming, infections of the port, == what if I die while I'm operated .....(I know dumb stuff, but it does swirl through the brain) Has anyone else felt like this????

I think we have all done that, it is normal. I think anytime you go through major surgery, you have all those thoughts. Good luck with your remaining tests, and let us know your surgery date.

I went through all of that and more. I think that what scared me the most was knowing that this was the end of the road. No more putting off the diet til Monday or after vacation, or any of those excuses we all use.

Your hungry brain will fight you like crazy, but you simply won't be hungry enough to give in and your logical brain will eventually kick in. My hungry brain fights me every night when it wants a sandwich or chips or something to put it to sleep.< /p>

I am 5 weeks post op and have lost 26 pounds and from reading these posts I know that I might plateau for a while because I'm eating solids now but I'm OK with that.

I would never have lost that weight if I didn't have the surgery and I'd be further on the road to an early grave. YOU CAN DO IT!!

Last week, as i entered the operating room, they put me on the table and i said, "you better hurry up and put me to sleep before I get up and leave."

See my point?

It's normal, we all do it. I am so thankful, I love it so far!

no, once I decide on something, that is it. I make it happen.
