Food Funeral?

Did any of you feel like your having a food funeral before surgery? Almost like eat what you want cause your never getting it again? I really don't want to gain anymore weight before my surgery in the new year but I think well why not eat it cause I won't be able to after surgery..

I still eat some of my guilty pleasures. I didn't have a funeral bc I didn't want to mess up my preop diet.

Well I attended a few funerals before surgery date. I did ensure I still lost the weight I needed to and I didnt do it the last few days because I didnt want to inflate the liver with a last burst of FAT. It did not har m me, but I have heard others mention how their surgery was delayed because of liver still being too big.. I totally understand where you are coming from though..

I felt that way but wish I didn't. I just made me feel sicker going into the pre-op liquid diet.

Funny concept. I thought of it like a "bucket list," as has been asked elsewhere: do you have a food bucket list for before surgery. I put Five Guys (done!) and Chipotle on my list. Not because I don't think I'll ever eat those things again, but because I'll never have those portions again. That burger is giant! So is Chipotle's burrito. It will never be the same again! :mellow:

Don't do it! I went crazy eating everything I could get my hands on before surgery because i thought "ill never get to eat it again". I gained like and extra

15 lbs before surgery. Ill be 2 months post op on the 17th and I can still eat the foods I thought I wouldn't be able too.

For the 4 days prior to surgery, I gave myself permission to eat whatever I wanted to without guilt. A funny thing happened, I didn't go crazy and shovel in Big Macs and Hershey's Kisses. lol

We went to our favorite, little dive Mexican place. I ended up ordering fajitas! And we went to Texas de Brazil and I ate mostly filet mignon!

I love Texas De Brazil. My last meal is either going to be there or red lobster ;-)

I tried thinking of my favorite foods to eat before I started my pre-op diet but my mind went blank! I couldn't think of anything that I wanted to binge on...I think I changed my relationship with food the day I decided to have the surgery.
