Last night I had a  dream that I ate an entire bag of m&m's and woke up gasping,  Did I flop on my pre surgery diet? 
Nope!!!

Thank Goodness

I'm not enjoying this at all I'm cranky moody, bi**hy, whiney, you name it. 
So help me lord I will make it the next 13 days!!!  Even if I have to sleep through my days and nights just so I dont notice the hunger pains. 
At least after VSG I wont ever feel hungry again, says my doc.
Thank goodness I think if i didn't have hunger pains I would be fine. 
Tho I know a lot of this is mental.

Any thoughts?

Sorry, I giggled at the M&Ms image, but I bet you were really wigged out!  I think sleeping is a good idea. Have you purchased all your post surgery "stuff" (vitamins, food scale, food processor/blender, support pillow, stuff to wear home from hospital,etc)? That might take some time. Also if you haven't read Weight Loss Surgery For Dummies, consider picking up a copy, Great info in there for post-op.

Here is one last suggestion and you will probably wanna slap me for it but it could work. Have you read the Harry Potter series? Or maybe Twilight? Now if you aren't a fan, before you dismiss my idea as ludicrous, consider the fact that these books are like brain candy. Page turners...and they take time to read. Once you get started you just want to keep going and you spend all your time (when you're not parenting and doing other priority tasks) reading. This could really fill your time and keep your mind off of...well everything (and food). If you have...consider re-reading them. Mindless joy.

Oh man wasn't New Moon (movie) just the best? Good stuff. Ok, so why don't you give Harry Potter another chance....I would never steer you wrong!   There's no sex though. haha

Omigoodness. I was going to start the I'm-a-total-*****on-a-diet-what-the-hell-are-youoing-to-me post!! lol I just yelled at my kids bc I couldn't handle them and made them come inside from playing. And I'm about to go psycho on some people on facebook bc they are being cryptic and I hate that crap and I'm not in the mood for it!!! lol.

Okay, I'm a little better. I don't have it NEARLY as bad as most of you guys so I won't whine about my low carb. Sending good vibes to all us April losers!!
