"Last Supper"

[NinaX 6]

Having surgery on monday and apart from total panic and angst I have today enjoyed my "last supper". I know I of course will be able to eat afterwards aswell, but still felt a need to serve a complete feast for dinner tonight. Champagne and shrimps for starters and beef tenderloin with potatoe gratin for main course, a really nice Amarone wine to go with it. Normal? I assume and hope so...

Tomorrow will be a day of excitement and I will most likely be a complete wreck of nerves. On top of trying to deal with all my feelings of death anxiety I will have to give myself an injection tomorrow night...something I have never done before....:-S

I wish I could fast forward until monday afternoon and I would be reassured that I would wake up after surgery and all went well.

Good for you I am something of a rare duck in that I am not a stress eater my stomach was so riled up by nerves I couldn't eat at all!

I wish I had dinner at your house, now I feel stupid saying I had pizza as my last supper. My surgery is for Monday also, I completely understand how you feel. I keep saying I can't wait till its over, before we know it will be. Good luck on Monday, Janine

What type of injection do you have to give yourself? That would scare me, too!

Hi,

The injection is a Fragmin self-injector, prescribed to be taken day before suregery and for 10 days afterwards. It's for preventing blood-clots. I'm hoping I will be alright with it tonight. It's a very small needle which is to be put into a very big belly - so should be ok.

Good luck with it and good luck with your surgery!!

My surgery is Nov 2nd and had my last supper last nite also being my 1yr wedding anniversary. I felt a nice seafood dinner would be good, so i had a half of a lobster tail, 4 scallops, 4 shrimp i was full from being on low carb diet last 3 weeks.

My restriction was different again from most i was just told not to eat after midnight on monday night, but i may opt to have a light Breakfast and Clear liquids on monday.

Im a little nervous but looking forward to a new start, im tired of being fat and the yo-yo weight loss and gain.

Good Luck to everyone on Monday looks like alot of people making a new start. Its time we finally do something for our selves!
