CarrieP 50 Posted November 12, 2012 Did any of you feel like your having a food funeral before surgery? Almost like eat what you want cause your never getting it again? I really don't want to gain anymore weight before my surgery in the new year but I think well why not eat it cause I won't be able to after surgery..

Katnroyal 225 Posted November 12, 2012 I still eat some of my guilty pleasures. I didn't have a funeral bc I didn't want to mess up my preop diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DianaE 128 Posted November 12, 2012 Well I attended a few funerals before surgery date. I did ensure I still lost the weight I needed to and I didnt do it the last few days because I didnt want to inflate the liver with a last burst of FAT. It did not har m me, but I have heard others mention how their surgery was delayed because of liver still being too big.. I totally understand where you are coming from though..

IsB 209 Posted November 12, 2012 I felt that way but wish I didn't. I just made me feel sicker going into the pre-op liquid diet.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArcusX 216 Posted November 12, 2012 Funny concept. I thought of it like a "bucket list," as has been asked elsewhere: do you have a food bucket list for before surgery. I put Five Guys (done!) and Chipotle on my list. Not because I don't think I'll ever eat those things again, but because I'll never have those portions again. That burger is giant! So is Chipotle's burrito. It will never be the same again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brookeco 37 Posted November 12, 2012 Don't do it! I went crazy eating everything I could get my hands on before surgery because i thought "ill never get to eat it again". I gained like and extra 15 lbs before surgery. Ill be 2 months post op on the 17th and I can still eat the foods I thought I wouldn't be able too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeauxForIt 659 Posted November 12, 2012 For the 4 days prior to surgery, I gave myself permission to eat whatever I wanted to without guilt. A funny thing happened, I didn't go crazy and shovel in Big Macs and Hershey's Kisses. lol We went to our favorite, little dive Mexican place. I ended up ordering fajitas! And we went to Texas de Brazil and I ate mostly filet mignon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vanessabalderas 10 Posted November 14, 2012 I tried thinking of my favorite foods to eat before I started my pre-op diet but my mind went blank! I couldn't think of anything that I wanted to binge on...I think I changed my relationship with food the day I decided to have the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
