Guest guest Posted July 6, 2000 Report Share Posted July 6, 2000 TeacherGator@... Regarding the food intake after surgery, I am a pre-op so I can't give you 1st hand knoweldge, but most of the post-ops have said they don't even CARE about the food>>>>>> That is so true for me. I am just over 4 months post-op and have gone from a fast-food/pepsi junkie to a " fruitie " kindda gal. LOL I still like food and can eat just about anything, but without all the cravings I can make healthier choices now. I feel like I am eating to live, rather then living to eat. And it feels good. <<<<<<I get more and more nervous of the SURGICAL part of it! I am TERRIFIED with a huge phobia of needles and blood - but I am so emotionally ready for this, that I am able to calm myself down>>>>>>>> I felt the same way, . I hate needles and had never even been in a hospital or had an IV. It turned out to be so simple that I am still amazed. Even the IV was easy. They had it in before I even knew they were gonna start it. Getting the staples out was even a piece of cake! I'm embarrassed now that I was so scared. You can do it! Good luck to all, and have fun. in Ohio MGB 2/22/2000 325-260 65 pounds in 4 months ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
