What was your "last" meal?



Recommended Posts

Had permission to eat a few meals at my moms memorial, a week before surgery. I had duck, escargot, lobster ravioli,(to die for), and was very happy, as I found out at the last minute when my surgery was and had no opportunity for a last meal. I had cut carbs a few months before surgery, had lost 24 lbs, so I didn't waste t

hat opportunity to eat carbs at all.

This is the only "last meal" I've heard about that was seemingly worth it. Burgers? pizza? Fast food? BLURP!! This sounds delicious. And a special time, too. <3

I went all out lol. I got absolutely wasted and ordered a BBQ bacon cheeseburger and loaded cheese fries. Alcohol alone must have been at least 1000 calories. I know a lot of people say not to do food funerals but it was worth it lol.

I fully admit I had a 2 week food funeral. Went for Mexican like 4 times, ordered pizza 3 times. Had Italian. Had all my favorite fast food--Sonic, Whataburger, Raising Canes, Jack in the Box. Sushi, cake and McDonalds Breakfast almost every morning

"Food funerals" are not necessary, food did not die. We only will be eating smaller portions of it post WLS and for some foods much less frequently.

Congratulations on your surgery in 10 days.

Such a great concept that I really feel like my NUT and doctor didn't really drive home.

It's true, though.

As a sleever.....one is simply delaying having certain things.

My final meal prior to starting my pre-op was thin crust supreme pizza from pizza Hut. It was such a different food from my normal low carb eating that I'd been doing at that point that beginning the liquid diet the next day was a welcome return to low carb eating. It was a greasy tasting mess that just didn't deliver any positives....but yet I did it anyway.

Now....13 months past surgery, I can have pizza without issue. I order it for the family once a week if not more. I almost never touch it and it's no biggie. I'd rather have other items that are on-plan.

Food....while fun to grill and cook....is only fun to eat for me when the nutritional breakdown is congruent with my goals.

      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.
