I want to chew chew chew, I am not hungry at all I just want that chewing feeling. ...... Good Luck tomorrow.. see you on the loosers bench!!!!

I understand what you're feeling. I'm having RNY the same day as you (3/31/08). I start my liquid diet tomorrow. That makes it more real for me. I'm also getting nervous and excited. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am experiencing some of the same emotions. I have actually found myself craving foods that I haven't thought of in a very long time just because I know after tomorrow my relationship with food will change forever. This is something that will take time and lots of support to get over. I just keep dreaming of my "surgiversary" as I have seen so many times on this site. At that point all of this will be a faint memory.

Hello All, I am having lpscpc RNY tommorrow, and I am sooooooo mourning food right now. I am just sitting here thinking of all of my favorite foods and how I will not be able to eat them. I was second guessing my decision until I looked in the mirror and said what is more important.... my health or the taste of fried chicken and mac&cheese. Needless to say I will be having my surgery! I am just wondering if this feeling will go away after the surgery. I have never really been a food junkie to the point that I can not control myself, my thoughts of eating the food is another story. Thanksgiving keeps running thru my mind right now. By then I will be able to eat some things, just smaller portions, MUCH SMALLER portions. Please keep me in your prayers, ~Im Gifted~

Glad to hear that you are home. I hope you have a speedy recovery and everything goes well with the weightloss.
