Definitely! I'm at my pre-op goal weight, or a few pounds below, so I can't risk gaining weight either. I've been very strict in my pre-op diet, and working out at the gym several times a week, but every now and then I find myself eating something "for the last time". Like, last weekend I had a huge sushi roll, and a few days before that I had a big taco salad with ranch dressing. Eventually, I know I'll be able to eat most of those foods again, just in very small amounts, but this process makes pre-op life and eating feel like it's coming to an end. I guess if I wanted to eat foods that I probably won't be able to ever eat again I should focus on sweets and sugar since those foods will actually make me sick to eat post-op. But during my pre-op dieting I scaled back on all sugary foods so that I kind of don't even crave them anymore. oh well!
Good luck to you in this process and welcome to the board!
