Eating like I am going to the chair

My PreOp diet starts Tuesday. I know this is wrong but I am eating like crazy. Like I will never be able to eat again. This is so my old pattern I was kind of hoping that realizing I was heavy enough to need surgery I wouldn't react like this. Is everyone else being good before their preOp diet?

Backtobarb' date=' I miss mimosas too, but don't worry too much about missing your water. I am 13 weeks out, and I can easily turn up a cold water of bottle and drink it all. I've never had any problem drinking as much as I wanted.[/quote']

I really hope I will too. There's nothing better than downing a cool bottle of water- well... a mimosa comes in a close second :)

Glad to see I'm not the only one thinking this way! I'm a newbie and scheduled for surgery in Oct. I've been allowing myself to eat what I want thinking it'll be the last time ever. I know I should start making changes now but it's so difficult!

I think I would literally choke someone for three French fries! Just 3 fries!!! I'm not hungry but I just keep smelling what people are eating around me is annoying!!! The smell seems stronger for some reason. Weird. Even when someone was eating crackers next to me I could smell it. One of my coworkers was standing over me eating a cookie the other day and I had to get up and walk away! I was so annoyed! I have 2 more days of work left before I get sleeved Monday. So happy! {)i(} Sent from my iPhone using VST {)i(}

I am 3 months post and prior to pre opt. I went nuts prior to pre opt diet. The night before the liquid diet I called it the last supper.

I just had my "last supper" today was my pre-op appointment (which took 9 hours!) and tomorrow starts my pre-op diet. I realized that there really are some things that I won't ever eat again, so I took advantage of that and ate my favorite meal, spaghetti. Lol

The difference is you will be able to eat again just different better. I love my sleeve and new life.

This is me tonight....I'm meeting my surgeon for the first time in the morning. Already have approval for it from ins., just need to talk to him, and set up the day.

Holy bananas I'm nervous!
