I'm starting to freak out ..

..I'm thinking about backing out..is this normal?
When I get nervous... I eat and eat and eat..and today is the day that I can't eat anything! :(
So I keep telling myself it's just head hunger..it's just head hunger..
I didn't think it was this possible to be this afraid of surgery!

Maggie, I'm so sorry you're feeling hungry. Its got to be head hunger, I think... those nerves that have been cut can't have healed that fast. Just hang in there, and follow your program to the letter. You're going to be great!

I'm feeling OK today!

Is anyone still holding on to IV weight from the hospital? I'm up about 3-4 pounds from the morning of surgery. (SO FRUSTRATING!)

Includes 29 pounds lost pre-op

I had RNY with Dr Pham 2/25/10...I agree, they never answer their phones- you need to leave a voicemail for EVERYTHING except scheduling an appt! Best of luck to you and I hope you get it all straightened out.

Topic: RE: March 10th

I'm up on Wednesday as well for RNY. I'm not nervous, which makes me nervous (if that makes any sense). Maybe it will hit me after work tomorrow as I am crashing to get all my projects either finished or ready to hand off to my department. Hopefully I've trained them well.

My Dr. does not require us to be on any sort of special diet pre-surgery but I've been working protein drinks into my routine over the last few weeks and starting today am sticking to the post surgery diet. Drinking my first bottle of Isopure grape frost and am liking it. Like a pretty good Gatorade.

I'm sure we'll all do fine.

I am also on March 16th! I am nervous, but very excited to get this done. I have to do 2 weeks of the liquid diet, on day 8 - I don't think of food much anymore......lol. I am ready for the loser's bench, I have been on this journey for far too long now. Yay for us!
