Well here I am about 4 days post op and I feel horrible. I know that everyone's body and surgical experience is different, but I can't recall reading too many people post on the challenges/excruciating  that they must overcome immediately following the surgery. I feel as though I have been run over by a huge truck. I expected to feel pain, but not like this. I have had 2 c-sections and the pain I felt after them were very minor  compared  to what I am feeling now. I had to have a hernia repaired  on the day of surgery  as well; however, I don't know if that may have increased my pain. Nevertheless, please don't call me crazy or ungrateful because I am neither of those. However, at this moment I am thinking that if I had known then what I know now that I may not have gone through with the surgery. And to top things off, I have already had my first meltdown over food.

Well here we are-8 days until my surgery date and I still haven't begun my 2 week pre-op diet. What is wrong with me? Why am I having such a hard time letting go of the foods I love and doing what I need to do before surgery? This is really scaring me. If I can't  do what I need to do now before surgery, how am I going to make the changes needed after surgery? Please help me! Did any of you have a hard time starting or following the pre-op diet plan?
