So my surgery is next Friday September 4th and my pre-op diet is going well. Anyway, I woke up this morning having had a horrific nightmare! I had a dream that I ate two butter tarts post surgery and was devastated and afraid of something going wrong! Wow I must really be worried subconsciously!! Has anyone had such a pre-surgery worry?

Lol - I didn't have anything like this pre-op, but I'm 5 days out now, and last night I had a similar dream. I was out at a football party with a large food buffet, and I was so caught up in the party and football game that I just reached out and grabbed a big ole beef burrito. Made it halfway through the it before I realized what I was doing and freaked out, which woke me up. Whew!

I think those sorts of anxiety dreams are normal for us facing a surgery and lifestyle changes as large as we're facing.

after my surgery for almost a week, I had food-binging dreams. In the back of my mind, I knew I was screwing up my surgery, but I couldn't stop eating. After about a week, the dreams ended.
