My last meal



Recommended Posts

So, I had planned on my "last" meal before I started liquids 2 weeks before my surgery to be lamb korma from my favorite Indian food restaurant. I ate a big lunch and now I'm too full to even think about it. My husband thinks I should just go tomorrow and start after that, but I am going to do the right thing and just say no! :lol: It is so hard but I will feel terrible starting off my journey like that. I am probably not going to be able to have it until April, but I WILL be in control. I am in control, damn it!

I had two last meals. Veggie burgers and veggie tacos.

If it's something you're craving get the craving out of the way so you're not tempted to try to eat it sooner than you should once banded.

I ate chicken, lol, though that's all I eat now. I never suffered from the last meal syndrome as I know there isn't food i CAN'T each, just food I choose not to eat.

Thanks for the input everyone! I woke up this morning still wishing I went and I happened to see some pictures of myself that were taken yesterday and now the craving is dissipating. :blink:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
