Pre surgery thought process- "eat everything in sight"

Thank you to everyone for responding. I'm glad this kind of thinking is more common than I thought I was honestly worried about posting this but I'm glad I did. I do have to be on a liquid diet 2 weeks prior to surgery.

I almost feel like having an early Thanksgiving dinner now.. I will be about a month out of surgery when Thanksgiving comes around this year. 

At Thanksgiving, if you're cleared for eating pureed foods (and you should be by then), have a bit of mashed sweet potato with a drizzle of turkey gravy over it. Believe me, it will be a real Thanksgiving feast after the liquid/protein-shake phase of your recovery.

Yes, at that point, I should be at pureed foods.. Stuffing is my favorite!!! Thank you for your support/response.
