Last Chance Eating



Recommended Posts

Any June Sleevers finding they're getting it all in before the ax falls?

I find I'm having everything I know I won't be able to eat again. Not a binge, like stuffing. But enjoying my eating.

Is anyone else doing that?

It's probably not a good idea. They told me not to gain weight before the surgery.

I start liquids tomorrow (June 12th surgery date) and I have to admit that I did indulge just a smidge - eating a bit of some foods that are now in the "no zone"... It was, in a way, my formal goodbye to those food items that have gotten me to where I am today and will be like kryptonite to the success of my surgery. This way, I have bidden adieu to some of my former favorite foods and will not let them influence me any more! On to healthier choices!!

I just scheduled my surgery for June 14th yesterday! I must have a few things for the last time! Like this one sushi roll that will not be a part of my diet after. Also, I would love a risotto!

Funny I am the opposite. I am doing high Protein, low carb right now, surgery is June 25th. I figured I have eaten anything I have wanted for so long, that I need to start training myself to eat correctly before surgery so it is not such a shock to my system!

I had a pretty simple last meal with my friends about a week before I officially started my liquid diet. We had awesome mexican and margaritas! But, then I stuck to my diet plan of replacing 2 meals a day with shakes...and dove right into my full liquid diet on time and haven't looked back.

Good luck all!

I've been doing a final farewell to the foods I won't be eating again after surgery. I start my pre-op diet on 6/14 (surgery 6/19) and my husband and I are doing a last meal out Wed. night. We've been going out more since I got my surgery date and spending a lot more because I have been getting what I want. I've also never been real picky about my meals in restaurants (if something isn't completely right or missing, etc.) but knowing it's my last time for most if not all, I've been rather picky. I've been polite and nice but I have been making sure it's exactly what I want. I also had to have my sushi fix! And the wings from a local bar are my version of crack so I'm having them Tuesday. :)

      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.
