OK...tried to post this question last night. Guess my little lap top didn't do it cause it isn't here this morning.

My quesion: Did anyone have the urge to binge on food BEFORE your surgery?

My hubby and I are both in the process of doing all the pre-surgery appointments that are required by our insurance. Our surgery will probably be sometime early in 2009. We are both eating like crazy! EXAMPLE: We haven't order pizza in ages...and have orered it twice this month! It is as if our minds are saying "Eat it now...cause you won't be able to eat it later"...and we are obeying!!!! Is this a normal reaction or are we just more crazy than we thought????

You are not crazy

I made me some Fantasy Fudge last night to celebrate my Surgery which is Tuesday

Eat it while you can

Nothing tastes as good as being thinner feels.

I did this as well. My surgery was approved in March and the date was set for July. I had to hit my fav places to eat .... multiple times. Dont worry your not crazy everyone that I know did this as well, I was just talking about it with a friend who has recently had surgery last week. She said she would eat any and everything just to be eating. I think its because we feel like we will never be able to eat again which isnt true!

It all shows us how FOOD is a big part of our life before surgey.I went to see my surgeon last month and said to my angel that I hope he doesn't schedule me till after Thanksgiving and CHRISTmas because I wanna be able to eat all that food before I can't.Like it will never be there tomorrow or in the future.My problem has been I don't eat enough because all I am eating is dinner sometimes lunch but not often.Now in the past I never cared about sweets and since talking with my surgeon I have been eating chocolate galore and other sweets.(my mom has always told me " you are lucky if you can pass up sweets, you sure didn't get that from me.")So I guess I am along the norm........LOL.Have a Blessed day!

Hey Brandy as I read Carmens posts and replied to her what a good Job with the secret pals. I thought of the simple things people on the board do and I thought of you . Just wanted to thank you for the prayer request you do everyday it is well appreciated

Thank You Vickie!!! That means so much to me.I am as well getting pms and other ways criticizing my posts to the point I haven't done them yesterday and today.I am so down about this.I am like Carmen I don't have the energy nor anything else to keep this up.I am still HIGH on God! Don't let me steer you wrong it hasn't knocked me off cloud 9 with Jesus but it surehas knocked the wind out of me.I know I never was a very religous person back in the day nor does people know about my situation with my kids unless people I have trusted has told things.I could pm u and tell you about that(my kids)So I make mistakes sue me.......I thought Jesus died on the cross for my sins? How can anyone judge someone unless you are living through it yourself? I am sorry I am venting it has just been too heavy on my heart and when you posted this it just hit me.I so appreciate you and people like you who have told me how they appreciate my posts. Thank You Vickie You are truely a valued FRIEND.God Bless You! I know He already has but continue to be Blessed,my friend!
