Soooo....I've been doing a diet consisting of 2 Protein shakes & 1 salad with protein a day, for 2 weeks before surgery (May 15th).

I've lost 6.5 lb in about 10 days and have only "cheated" once by taking a few mouthfuls of some sunflower seeds in a weak moment.

According to my BMI, My surgeon only requires me to do a 3 day diet before surgery, which would start tomorrow. Which brings me to my question:

I've seriously been craving a certain fast food restaurant. Should I go by there today and pig out since its my last chance basically ever? Since I don't even have to be on this diet at this point anyway what would it really hurt?

Bah, the only thing good at Sonic anyway are the strawberry limeades and cheddar bites. Esp since they did away with the cheddar peppers. You didn't miss anything, and now your superego can give itself two big thumbs up.

I miss me some cherry limeaid. I gave up soda months ago and that had to go too

omg Melissa, I had to fight with myself for three days pre-op not to go to Sonic..I soo wanted a chili cheeseburger from there, but I somehow resisted and was thankful because I didn't want to go into surgery with the usual diet mentality I've always had, which was pig out today, diet tomorrow. Good for you for resisting!

besides what others said, if you eat crappy food now after eating well, your body will probably revolt & you'll end up in the bathroom all afternoon!! I've stuck to having more SF popsicles or SF Jell-O when I've craved stuff. It's not exactly the same, but gives me something other than liquid and it's okay by my doctor's guidelines. I'm NOT looking forward to tomorrow since I have to just to all clear liquids all day tomorrow since it's the day before surgery! So much for Mother's Day. I guess I'll just have to cherish the non-food gifts!!
