Last Meal.



Recommended Posts

Just had my last meal and I wanted to share the details. We decided to go to the Keg for our last supper sans Band. Here's the low down.

1-Keg Margarita

2-Lettuce Wedge salad. Otherwise known as a reason to slather on the Blue cheese.< /span>

3-Steak and Lobster. I've never had such a thing. One-money doesn't grow on trees. Two-I've never been marooned on a desert Isl. with my millionaire husband. And C-That's just showing off.

But since we live in Alberta, I guess we should do as Albertan's do.

I'm not much of a steak eater but I decided to go down in a blaze of glory. I’m telling you, this was the best steak ever. I had it medium well (sorry true steak aficionados-I know this is a sinful level of doneness). I didn’t fill up on the bread or the rice and this plan of attack proved to be a winning strategy. The Lobster, bless its little crustacean soul, was tender and sweet and met its buttery destiny with dignity and honor. Chris had the Baseball steak and I did my best not to let the graphic display of a basically raw hunk of beef ruin my dinner. It was kind of like a car accident, I found it hard to look away. I think the lobster and steak are dancing around in my tummy…a truly delicious “last supper”. And I didn’t have to put up with crap from the apostles this time.

Bring on the Optifast; it’s all downhill from here Baby!

Yum!

I think of bread and rice and Pasta to a degree as "non-delicious fillers", lol. Its important I dont waste my stomach space on non delicious fillers and eat only the best bits of the meal! When I go out, it it aint delicious, I dont eat it.

That sounds like a pretty good mast meal. I too will be going to the Keg with my wife for a last pre-band meal.

Am I the only one who did this? I have been kinda having the farewell tour. Visiting all my favorite food place. I had my last (maybe) Jimmy's Donair, last whopper, last chinese buffet, etc. I am trying to think of all those things that I wanted to eat but wont be able to after I start the Optifast on Jan 24.

I know it sounds weak, but I need to do it.

Oh good. This Christmas was the one and only where my wife was not saying I need to watch my eating. She has given me plenty of slack interms of my diet since I was booked for surgery since she know it will all come to a halt soon enough.

Nope, I went on a sort of Blonde Ambition Farewell Foodcourt Tour for the last week before my operation. :)

I so have the "last supper" syndrome!! I'm gald to hear I'm not the only one. I've been feeling kinda guilty about it. I'm trying really hard now to practice healthy eating habits but I definately will be going to the Keg for my last meal!! Thanks for the idea Mookie!

Good to hear from all of you. Enjoy the "all you can eat" while you can. You know we'll all meet in the buffet line in H-E double hockey sticks anyway. Cajun, anyone?

Day one on Optifast sucks. Lettuce has never tasted so good. Oh, I drank some pickled Olive juice. Damn good stuff. Shaken not stirred, of course.

The great thing about the band is that we can enjoy our favorite foods but not in the same quantity as before. I tend to "nibble" my favs when the kids get them or hubby gets a treat and I "share" his meal. I don't long for the all you can eats. My biggest thing is not being able to eat potatoes skins smothered in bacon bits and sour cream - I know tons of calories but oh so yummy!

The Keg sounds like the perfect "last meal". Mine was Red Lobster - and it was delicious!!

Nice meal, mookie! Mmmmm... the Keg. I wasn't so lucky. If I ever go again, I think I'll be eating of the BF's plate :bananapartyhat: I loooooove their caesar salad, and those big dinner Buns they give you, with the little cup of real butter... mmm... I tried many times to get Dan to go find out if they'd just let us go in and eat those. Same with Red Lobster... I'm not the biggest fan (I'd be lynched for even saying that in NB!), but those cheese buns you get before you meal... my fav.

Think they could make a Keg steak dinner flavour spray?

      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.
