My last supper



Recommended Posts

I had my last supper last night for Christmas with my family. When I took my last bite I said Goodbye food, you have not been a very good friend to me.

Technically I should have been full liquids all day, but I fudged a little to be able to get thru the day.

Full on full liquids starts today. 13 days & counting.

Wishing you the best of luck. Don't say goodbye food because you still want to be able to enjoy food (it may take a while to get there but you will). My NUT says not to be afraid to eat. I will always love food. Now.. instead of living to eat, I eat to live. I just make better food choices. You will be fine.

You aren't saying goodbye but next go around...you'll actually TASTE what little you CAN eat. There were a few "must haves" the rest the garbage I used to shovel in held no temptation.

Y'all have misunderstood me. Gheesh.

I flipping know I can eat again, but not for a long while & not in the same way. I'm not ignorant of the process.

A little testy are we? If you don't want others advice...don't post. I thought I knew it all going in. Then I had the surgery and had to live it while trying to pull my foot out of my mouth.

Best of luck

@dw40. I think I understood you meant you were saying a fond farewell to your old way of life because after surgery you will never eat the same way again.

I am nearly 5 weeks out and I honestly feel I have been given a new life. That doesn't mean to say I haven't obsessed about food: it's just taking my head a little longer to catch up to my body!

Finally just to say there is no better support site than this one. I am in the UK and I have been waiting 8 weeks to get login for a UK site but since I found BPal I haven't looked back. Here you get support in many different ways (including respect AND humour)

Good luck on your journey xx

@@dw40 Hey! I wasn't rude to you! I was joking with you and even said "good luck with your pre-op" then you insinuated we thought you were "ignorant in the process" we've heard that term "last supper" a gazillion times on here! I can't speak on how everyone else interpreted it but I knew what you were saying and the others where giving you advice! Your response did sound pissy! Any way sorry if you thought people where being rude it wasn't my intentions. I hear Thinnertimes Or obesity help may be good sites! Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
