Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Corinne, I did the same thing as you! My upper jaw surgery was December 17, so i'm almost to 6 weeks post-op. I knew i wouldn't be able to eat " normal " food for a long long time, so i ate whatever my body craved. normally i'm very health conscious, but it kinda felt good not caring what i was eating and just trying to enjoy the whole experience. my last dinner was also a big steak dinner. i ate so much i had to be rolled out of the restaurant i was so glad i ate like a fiend beforehand, b/c i lost a lot of weight after surgery. so it helped to have that " extra bulk " that i aquired pre-op! good luck with your surgery!!! aileen --- balmerchick balmerchick@...> wrote: --------------------------------- Oh - and BTW - I am eating like a FIEND between now and Feb 11-th - my surgery date!
