chele367 81 Posted May 24, 2016 Yay! So awesome. In limbo mode too being sleeved, 6/8. Trying to keep my weight below goal. Last two weeks let myself off the diet leash just a bit. Went up 2 lbs and now down under a 1 lb from goal. My old way of thinking is like yeah you have a month you can eat then lose it. Um yes & no. Not sure how you are but some of my favorite things like pizza just do not taste as good after being so hardcore on the pre-op diet. So salty and can taste the sugar in sauce so might as well stick to the low carb cauliflower crap I have gotten use to lol. Are you planning a last supper or food funeral? It is not advised but sounds like it is a pretty common practice. I have not full on had a huge meal because I am afraid of the guilt and what that will do to my motivation. Then I get overwhelmed like what would I have anyway? Well here is to our new lives waiting for us!!! Here is to the countdown!!!!! Happy for you. -Michele Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lmwilla 21 Posted May 24, 2016 @@chele367 My pre op diet is only 2 weeks of a 1200 calorie diet and I don't start that until 6/6. Other than that I am starting to cut out the crap food to prepare. I'm not really planning on a food funeral, but I would like to eat at Olive Garden 1 more time haha. Pasta isn't going to be my friend ever again. I am a little nervous about the actual procedure, but other than that I am ecstatic and can't wait!!! Good luck and stay in touch!!!
