Have had no appetite, have been nauseated and an all around nervous mess since I committed to this surgery. Is it just me? Not having the surgery til Nov 5th. Hope I don't feel like this the whole time! I am looking at foods that I know I should not ever eat again and I'm OK with it. Most of the foods I shouldn't eat make me feel sick anyway. I am not so nervous about having to permanently change my ways. More nervous that I am going alone and that I have committed. Anyone else going to be having surgery with Dr Garcia around Nov 5th? And am I the only one freaking out that "It's actually happening"?

No, I found that too. Some stuff I would eat just because it's there -- like at parties and stuff -- is really unappealing to me now. I feel like I am soooo tired of eating and feeling bad about it, it's just easier not to.

The trouble is when something tastes GOOD, I can't stop. And mentally, since I didn't eat all the other stuff, I justify eating more+... so I wasn't losing weight.

Good morning and I think it is normally to have all of the emotions you are having. I will have my surgery on September 10th and I have all sorts of emotions but what helps me is I know that I am doing what is right for me. More than that I have peace about the decision I have made to have the WLS... I started my pre-op diet on yesterday and surprisingly I was not hungry... I am always hungry... I just know that this is going to be the best thing I have done and Believe me you are not the only one...

Sending positive energy your way and Best regards on your upcoming surgery!!!

Thanks. I'm glad it's not just me.

It is not just you. I've been a hot mess for weeks now; I thought it was just me :-\
