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. :)

      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.
