pre-op question

Do you find yourself eating more food and junk before pre-op diet? Lately I find myself craving junk and seems like constantly. Im constantly telling myself no as I never even craved stuff before so why now?

Most people whether they admit it or not went through phases of eating a lot and junk leading up to pre-op because you are thinking you may never get to eat that stuff again. It does get easier but there will always be some things you just have a hard time avoiding.

I didn't eat junk at the end because I had to loose 50lbs before I could have the surgery.

I had to fight my head a lot with thoughts, like I will never have this again

I will never be able to eat that again. I also had to fight a lot of crazy

thoughts about what my last meal would be. When I quit eating junk food

I felt bad for about a week, I really think I went through withdraw from the junk food.

I must have be addicted to all the fats and sugars. So my suggestion is to

get the junk food out of your system before surgery, you don't want to go through

junk food withdraw wile recovering from surgery. I am 7 weeks out from surgery

and food is the last thing on my mind now. Good luck and for me the surgery went very easy.
