change before surgery
I changed absolutely NOTHING in the weeks leading up to my surgery (other than trying not to do a bunch of "last meals"). For me, anything I tried to do before surgery would have been dieting, and I had already had 30+ years of dieting failure (and did not need any more to increase my depression before surgery), but waiting to make all the changes at once AFTER surgery was a truly new life (not at all like dieting... Just slowly relearning to eat, just as a child learns initially).
