Food Funeral......glad It Has Happened!



Recommended Posts

Well....I have finally gotten sick of eating all the stuff I probably will never eat again......I had a food funeral this week and am so glad I got to do it....

I can't wait until Monday to start my 2 week pre-op liquid diet......

It feels okay to say good bye to all the past and leave this old me in the past...when I read on here about others having food funerals...I did not understand...but I do now and am happy to have gone through it.......I planned carefully every thing that I wanted to taste one more time.....it was good.......but I am so glad it is over.....

The first time I was booked I did not get a chance to deal with the last meal and possible missed foods I would never eat again......the last thing I ate before that pre-op diet started, was a toasted Tomato sandwich.....I was really upset about that..never got the chance to Celebrate the good news or choose my last bad habit meal......( Head still not screwed on right then...)

A few days later I got the new date and even though I have been careful about my intake...I have eaten food that I probably will never eat again..salt, sugar, greasy you know the stuff I mean.....

I feel even more ready now and set on my decision to sleeve.........

I did that too! It made this pro op diet sooooo much easier! I'm glad I did it because now I'm not craving a thing!!! Kids eat in front of me and it doesn't bother me one bit!

Happy losing!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
