last meal before pre-op diet



Recommended Posts

I can't believe I'm having this issue in my head. I start my pre-op diet tomorrow morning (7 days) and I just keep thinking all day, yeah, I'm going to eat this, this is the last time I'll be able. Tomorrow starts a new me. Now I know why they make you do a pre-op diet, otherwise I'd probably be eating a giant mexican dinner the night before! Did anyone else do this? Key question, and then were you able to be successful. I know in my head tomorrow is the beginning of a new me so I really should be able to not want to eat some ice cream, huh?

I am right there with you. Went to the store for one thing and bought $50 worth of junk food. I have eaten so much I feel sick. I start my pre-diet on Friday.

I definetly did that! Haha wow I dont think i've ever eaten so many different foods in a matter of two days. Its not gonna make you miss them anyless, but maybe you wont crave them as much. Just think. In a matter of six weeks (in my case) I'll be able to have those foods again, just not as much. I had my surgery exactly one week ago, and am already cravings. Just make sure you have found foods that you can live on until you can eat normal foods again.

I am totally there. I was like "This is my last Big Mac." " This is my last ice cream cone." "This is my last bowl of pasta." There are so many lasts.:smile: But the new me and the new life I will be living will be so much better than a few Big Macs and ice cream.:party: Stay strong.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
