"Last Supper"

Having surgery on monday and apart from total panic and angst I have today enjoyed my "last supper". I know I of course will be able to eat afterwards aswell, but still felt a need to serve a complete feast for dinner tonight. Champagne and shrimps for starters and beef tenderloin with potatoe gratin for main course, a really nice Amarone wine to go with it. Normal? I assume and hope so... :rolleyes::P

Tomorrow will be a day of excitement and I will most likely be a complete wreck of nerves. On top of trying to deal with all my feelings of death anxiety I will have to give myself an injection tomorrow night...something I have never done before....:-S

I wish I could fast forward until monday afternoon and I would be reassured that I would wake up after surgery and all went well.

Good for you I am something of a rare duck in that I am not a stress eater my stomach was so riled up by nerves I couldn't eat at all!

I wish I had dinner at your house, now I feel stupid saying I had pizza as my last supper. My surgery is for Monday also, I completely understand how you feel. I keep saying I can't wait till its over, before we know it will be. Good luck on Monday, Janine

My last supper is tomorrow. I will start a liquid diet Monday. My surgery date is November 15.

My surgery date is also November 15. Where are you having your surgery? I wish you the best of luck and please keep in touch. You can e-mail me at cynthia.hebert@att.net if you would like to.

What type of injection do you have to give yourself? That would scare me, too!

Hi,

The injection is a Fragmin self-injector, prescribed to be taken day before suregery and for 10 days afterwards. It's for preventing blood-clots. I'm hoping I will be alright with it tonight. It's a very small needle which is to be put into a very big belly - so should be ok. :lol:

Good luck with it and good luck with your surgery!!

My surgery is Nov 2nd and had my last supper last nite also being my 1yr wedding anniversary. I felt a nice seafood dinner would be good, so i had a half of a lobster tail, 4 scallops, 4 shrimp i was full from being on low carb diet last 3 weeks.

My restriction was different again from most i was just told not to eat after midnight on monday night, but i may opt to have a light Breakfast and Clear liquids on monday.

Im a little nervous but looking forward to a new start, im tired of being fat and the yo-yo weight loss and gain.

Good Luck to everyone on Monday looks like alot of people making a new start. Its time we finally do something for our selves!

Thank you! Same to you! I am having my sleeve done in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. What about you?

Tonight was my last supper... had my favorite Mexican meal.. vegetarian chimichinga, cheese dip and chips & salsa. Mmm mmm. Starting my liquid diet tomorrow and surgery on Nov 16th. I can't believe this is actually happening! :o

Good luck with your surgery! You will do great!
