thank you so much for your input. Ive been reading up on different people's experiences and Im not sure if it comforts me or scares me more lol. Im excited for the surgery though, because like you...Ive never felt full before. I know in my heart I am ready for the surgery and without it I will surely die....but I just have those what if's in the back of my mind... thanks again!!:sad:

So I am 21 years old and just finished my 6th dietitian appointment. My paperwork is being submitted to the insurance company and will be approved/denied within 30 days. Is it normal for me to be a nervous wreck? Is it sad that Im more nervous about not being able to eat what I enjoy than the actual surgery? My problem is I have a pituitary tumor that messes with my taste buds....and also causes me to have cravings. I can eat the same thing for a week in a row and then never want to touch it again. And from what I hear some of my favorite things I wont be able to eat (like chicken and dumplings) Im wondering if you ever feel pleased with what you eat? do you get used to it? does losing the weight end up being so enjoyable that you forget about the good things you want to drink or eat (dr pepper!!) ?? Im so ready to be healthy and happy and be able to dress like a 21 year old and not a 51 year old. Im ready for my knees to feel like they are 21 and not 71. Please give me some advice? some encouragement? It'd be much appreciated! sorry for rambling!:sad:
