Starvation Mode
I had a similar kind of "freak out" at first too. I was assured that my fat ass had plenty of, well, fat for me to live off of. I guess pre-op would be the time to land on a desert island...
All I ever really wanted was to be able to eat about 800 clean calories a day and not be starving, as in headache, dang I'm really hungry, etc.
And now I have that option and so far it is SUPER easy. I am STUFFED on one hard boiled egg. I can comfortably eat about 1/2 of a playing card size of any food. Hence the importance of getting protein in first.
It's an adjustment just in terms of buying food - grocery store or eating out. I'm throwing out a lot of food, but I'll learn. :)
