I am starting my liquid diet on Saturday morning. I went to the store today and stocked up on what I think I need for 2 weeks. We are going out to dinner tonight since it will be my last meal out for a while. I WANT A STEAK. I'm thinking either Outback or Texas Land and Catle. Not sure? What did you eat?

OMG, I went through this yesterday and I ended up eating taco bell as my girls backed out on our plans.........GRRRRR!!!! Day one of the liquid diet isn't that bad. I am fortunate that I only have to do this for 4 days. Hope all is well with you,

We ended up at Outback. I thought I did pretty good considering. I tried not to let my brain control the meal. I had a salad w/ no dressing, baked potato w/ no sour cream, and a steak w' crab legs. It was GOOD!!

Last Supper Syndrome is pretty popular around here! rolleyes.gif

You will be able to eat again, though. And you'll be able to eat most of your favorites. It's all about moderation and Portion Control. The band helps us with portion control.

Best wishes for an easy surgery and great recover!

I was banded on a Monday. Had my final pre-op appointment with the Dr. on a Friday. Thought real hard on my final meal. Saturday I went to my favorite Chinese Buffet, all you can eat. Figured this was one place I will never visit again.

Sunday, day before surgery, I pretty much fasted to get it out of my system before surgery Monday.

Hope you enjoyed it.

I think you can still eat Chinese, I know I do...

You just don't need a whole buffet full, So pick from a menu.

Child's portion, show your Bariatric Card and save in price too.

I also had steak that my husband made!! I had surgery June 30th and had steak again a few days ago and didn't have any problems, but I don't go for my first fill until Aug 17th. I'm sure I won't be able to after that!

Good Luck to you!

During my final weeks before surgery I gained 5 pounds! I ate everything I thought I would no longer enjoy. But the truth is I can still enjoy all those foods, but just in moderation. I have steak, seafood, chinese food, BBQ-you name it! I try to stay away from sweets and limit my alchol -but I do indulge. A month after my surgery I was able to eat anything-actually I could eat the same amount as before the surgery with absolutely no problems. I have had 2 fills so far and I am not able to eat as much or as fast. I haven't hit that sweet spot yet but I am inching closer!

had to post here, as I am having my last supper tomorrow!! I am going to a buffet for all you can eat grab legs...(which aren't actually bad for you...except the butter) but I dont plain on over doing it at all. I don't want it to be a Complete shocker to my body on Friday when I start my liquid diet bc I had just ate so much food the night before. I plan on enjoying my meal moderately tomorrow!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
