sandiburn 23 Posted July 28, 2011 I am starting my liquid diet on Saturday morning. I went to the store today and stocked up on what I think I need for 2 weeks. We are going out to dinner tonight since it will be my last meal out for a while. I WANT A STEAK. I'm thinking either Outback or Texas Land and Catle. Not sure? What did you eat?

LaDolceVita78 1 Posted July 28, 2011 OMG, I went through this yesterday and I ended up eating taco bell as my girls backed out on our plans.........GRRRRR!!!! Day one of the liquid diet isn't that bad. I am fortunate that I only have to do this for 4 days. Hope all is well with you, I am starting my liquid diet on Saturday morning.

sandiburn 23 Posted July 29, 2011 We ended up at Outback. I thought I did pretty good considering. I tried not to let my brain control the meal. I had a salad w/ no dressing, baked potato w/ no sour cream, and a steak w' crab legs. It was GOOD!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cocoabean 430 Posted July 31, 2011 Last Supper Syndrome is pretty popular around here! You will be able to eat again, though. And you'll be able to eat most of your favorites. It's all about moderation and Portion Control. The band helps us with portion control. Best wishes for an easy surgery and great recover! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-52 7,113 Posted August 3, 2011 I was banded on a Monday. Had my final pre-op appointment with the Dr. on a Friday. Thought real hard on my final meal. Saturday I went to my favorite Chinese Buffet, all you can eat. Figured this was one place I will never visit again. Sunday, day before surgery, I pretty much fasted to get it out of my system before surgery Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
54Shirley 105 Posted August 3, 2011 Hope you enjoyed it. I think you can still eat Chinese, I know I do... You just don't need a whole buffet full, So pick from a menu. Child's portion, show your Bariatric Card and save in price too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonna 4 Posted August 3, 2011 I also had steak that my husband made!! I had surgery June 30th and had steak again a few days ago and didn't have any problems, but I don't go for my first fill until Aug 17th. I'm sure I won't be able to after that! Good Luck to you!

NJGirl32 43 Posted August 3, 2011 During my final weeks before surgery I gained 5 pounds! I ate everything I thought I would no longer enjoy. But the truth is I can still enjoy all those foods, but just in moderation. I have steak, seafood, chinese food, BBQ-you name it! I try to stay away from sweets and limit my alchol -but I do indulge. A month after my surgery I was able to eat anything-actually I could eat the same amount as before the surgery with absolutely no problems. I have had 2 fills so far and I am not able to eat as much or as fast. I haven't hit that sweet spot yet but I am inching closer! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
changing4me 1 Posted August 4, 2011 had to post here, as I am having my last supper tomorrow!! I am going to a buffet for all you can eat grab legs...(which aren't actually bad for you...except the butter) but I dont plain on over doing it at all. I don't want it to be a Complete shocker to my body on Friday when I start my liquid diet bc I had just ate so much food the night before. I plan on enjoying my meal moderately tomorrow!!
