How do you channel emotional eating into something else?

I am scheduled for RNY on 09/21/07. Food has always been my friend. I eat when I'm happy, sad, bored, etc. Once I have RNY I know that those same emotions are still going to be there. I'm worried that after surgery I may turn to something else to channel those feelings since food won't be an option. Have any of you struggled with this?
