Last supper syndrome.



Recommended Posts

I am dealing with what my dr calls last supper syndrome. I start my preop diet tomorrow and I've been eating everything in sight this weekend!! I'm sending my hubby out for one last good meal for supper. Has anyone else done this before preop diet??

Otherwise known as food funerals, very common. Just one caution--don't do this right before your surgery so you won't risk having surgery canceled due to a fatty liver. You will be able to have some of those favorites again, but it will be down the road several months and in much smaller portions.

I start my preop diet tomorrow. My surgeon has already told me that I have an abnormally small liver.

I've started my Last Suppers before I even have a surgery date. Every three weeks I take a meal that I will not be able to have ever, in quantity or in a couple years very toned down and eat it. I've enjoyed a huge fried seafood platter, a six course Italian meal and pizza. It was the affirmation that 'I can live without this food and the way it's cooked and portioned' that I was most satisfied about discovering.

LOL I started my pre-op liquid diet today too- and yesterday was FULL of amazing food.

I made hubby take me out both for bfast and dinner- then I met a friend for dessert. Hubby and I actually joked at dinner about this being my 'last supper'. I am so ready now :D:D hehehehehe

Now Im sipping on Protein drinks and Water. Yum :wacko:

Chelle,

How is is going so far, I start my liquid diet on Wednesday but have been trying to eat less the past couple days, it has been rough for me and I'm not even on the complete diet yet.

When is your surgery scheduled for, mine is October 23. Good luck to you

Today is ok- although sipping on my Protein drink is nasty- and its only day 1. Im not really hungry though. At one point I smelled my co-workers pizza and thought mmmmmm- but I drank a bunch of Water and its better now.

I think I need to mix my powder with something other than skim milk. I dont like milk much anyway. My surgery is just two days before yours, on the 21st. I hope this two weeks goes by fast. :) Good luck when you start on Wednesday!!!!!

Have you tried just Water some taste better mixed with just water than milk. Also maybe add some of those flavored coffee syrups...you can get sugar free flavors at Walmart just something to add variety!

I know that the Last Supper idea is very tempting, but my bariatric nurse told me not to do that because it makes it so much harder to handle the liquid diet. Therefore, I'm trying to cut down on food portions and have even begun to have a Protein Shake instead of Breakfast. I plan to transition to Protein Shakes for breakfast and lunch before I go on full liquid. I sure hope that plan will ease the shock of liquids only.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
