I will begin my two weeks of liguid diet on July 16th for my surgery on July 31st. I would like to plan something special for my last meal on July 15th. Any suggestions? I was thinking In-n-out burger but thats just a thought.

My hubby's plan is In and Out...that's his favorite! I would vote for In and Out because after surgery, you won't really want a burger anymore. Congratulations, and good luck with the liquid diet!

He will want one later though! LOL That's a great idea. In and Out double double's are so delicious! :)

I had a sushi buffet as my last meal. It was soooo good.

Enjoy whatever you decide on!

When my time comes, I think I will hear a Japanese Steakhouse calling my name :)

My last meal was at a Japanese steakhouse, it was amazing. I'm 3 months out and still eat at In N Out every once in awhile. The Protein style cheeseburger is great, I can eat about half of it and the calories aren't bad at all.

I went to a Japanese steakhouse 2 days before my 14 day preop. The day before preop, I was advised to eat light because if you do your "last meal" the day before you start preop shake it makes it much worse. I had a little Soup and salad from my favorite sandwich place, Potbelly.

edited to say I also knew it would be a long time before we are allowed to eat salads, and I love love salads, and it's the one thing I think I miss the most so far.

I went for a rib eye. nom nom. lol. yeah. i'm still on the full liquid diet. not so bad. now i love Trader Joe's soups! some day i will eat rib eye again but only a couple two bites. i have to say that I am happy that i still like food. i cook for my family every day. the great thing is that I am easily satisfied and feeling FULL. this process made me realize that I never felt full in the past.

Thanks for the tip about the Soups at Trader Joe's. Every once in a while we pop in there as my wife loves the Lemon Cookies. Now I'll have to look at the Soup section. I go in on August 1st. to sign my surgery orders, check vitals and speak with the nutritionist (probably to start my liquid diet). August 14th. is the big day!

      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.
