Last Meal Question

[lil lee 46]

Ok I have a question many ppl who have there last meal have a big meal before surgery why is that after doing the pre op diet?? What was your last meal

My last meal was before my pre op diet. My pre op diet was a 7 day semi- liquid diet and it sucked. For my last meal I ate a baked potato with brisket and stuffed jalapenos. And beer. Loved every minute of it. Disclaimer: I knew going in that I did not have a "fatty liver" before surgery because I'm a sonographer and know what one looks like. Enjoy your last meal sensibly...don't go crazy. I promise you'll be able to eat most anything you want down the road (although if you're like me it doesn't take much to satisfy the appetite monster). Good luck to you!

we do a pre-op diet to shrink our liver and in my opinion our stomach as well....going on all liquids allows your body to purge the food in your system and release some of the fat that is stored in our liver. I'm actually having my last meal tonight, its a baked potato and beef chef salad...yeah I know doesnt sound like its something really gross, but I love a baked potato and a salad, it will be a while before I will be able to eat a salad again so I am enjoying one tonight!!

I had scallops and Pasta with butter for my last dinner. Now the pre-op diet is very hard! But soon I'll join the ranks of the sleeved.

I have been on a diet since November and tonight was my last dinner before I start pre-op shakes on Monday. I had Steak, some vegetable fried rice, a few sips of Miso Soup, a tiny sald at House of Kobe a Japanese steak house. Tomorrow I will be careful with what I eat, because if I overeat tomorrow it will make Monday's 3 shakes only brutal. We are not allowed any solid food for 14 days prior to surgery, just 3 pre-packaged shakes that we add Water to, decaff tea, crystal light or sugar free popsicles/jello.

I can do this!!!
