I had fair type food on 4th of July.

Then my real last meal was just the stock of some onion Soup at a very nice French restaurant. I was on Clear liquids before surgery, but I was going to dine in style just in case I died the next day.

I'm having my final dinner tonight and my husband wants to take me out. I can't pick a place though. I didn't have a special diet before surgery except Clear Liquids the day before.

There was a lot of stuff I thought I would never eat after surgery, but in reality my diet is pretty much the same.

I would probably go for carby things. When I was eating on 4th of July before I started my pre-op I had sugar things, which was weird because I didn't even eat sugar at that point and hadn't in years. I had a funnel cake, a huge thing fo fries, a cheese steak and I think I got an alcoholic drink even though I didn't drink. So I took a few bites of funnel cake, didn't drink the liquor, ate 1/2 the fries, and made a decent dent in the cheese steak. I was really too hot to eat and I wasn't even mentally in a pig out space, even though I wanted to be.

What is your favorite meal?

I had subway. My love for carbs is real and I knew I wouldn't be able to eat a sandwich for a while if ever

I had chicken and salad. A carby meal makes me super hungry for days and I knew I personally couldn't handle that on such a restrictive pre op diet.

If you can handle cravings for days (or perhaps carbs don't affect you like they do me), go for your favorites. Live large!

I went to the Keyport Fishery in NJ and had a full platter of fish--fried, baked, broiled and raw---and of course souped.

Do I regret having my "food funeral"? Not one damned bit! I'll have those memories for a life time.

There will be foods that you will not ever eat comfortably again. --and if you are one of the WLS people who experience dumping, you will never be able to eat those foods again without retching--ever.

Enjoy your "food funeral". I did. :)

      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.
