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?

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,

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!!

Last Supper Syndrome is pretty popular around here! rolleyes.gif

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!

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.

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.

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!

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!

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!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
