So tonight is suppose to be my "Last Supper" or funeral meal and the more I sit here and think about it, the more guilty I feel. I have worked so hard for the past 3 months to lose 60 lbs which I did, I actually lost 63 lbs I had to for them to schedule my surgery. I will be on a 4 week pre-opt diet starting Sunday.

I have actually gained about 2 lbs since they scheduled me for surgery, and I HAVE to lose 15 more lbs before I can have surgery. I do not know what they will do if I get there and I didn't lose a total of 75 lbs. If they will tell me no, and make me leave, or go ahead with it.

Anyway, I plan on having pizza tonight (which is my fav). I don't plan on over eating, I'm actually planning on eating it on a salad plate so I can't get as much pizza on the plate as a big one. Because I don't want to over do it. But I can't help but feel guilty, and worried. I did eat out two times after my last Dr. appt. Bob Evans and Texas Steakhouse. LIke I said I gained 2 lbs..or maybe 3. Hopefully this won't cause me any problems! I'm sure a lot of people did the "food funeral" or last supper and lost just fine right?

Katie, I saw your pictures on Facebook in the support group! You can already see your loss and you're doing so great!! Having a "last meal" isn't the worst thing in the world. I have enjoyed some of my favorite foods too going toward surgery, just tried to really keep them in moderation when I did. Definitely eat your salad first (with healthy dressing lol) to help fill you up some and be careful not to over eat, but I don't think it's going to derail you!! :) It really sounds like your head is in a good place about it!!!

I'm excited to watch you keep losing!!!

I had a lap band for 2 years and lost 100#. After it came out due to complications, I swore I would be super careful and not gain much while I waited for it to be replaced. I ended up gaining that 100# plus some. Talk about not proud!! :-/

We are food addicts and even though we are working on it, we are dealing with, in my opinion, the hardest addiction to kick. We can't quit our addiction. We have to eat to live. It's like making an alcoholic drink without getting drunk!

We are (or for some of you, were) at a hard point in this process. Knowing that we have a tool coming, that help is coming, and trying like hell to do it on our own until then. We have some added motivation to use to our advantage, but we are still dealing with emotional and binge eating without the help and tools we've admitted we need. (Though, trust me, therapy helps lol)

Lets give ourselves a little more forgiveness for our slips. Should we go out planning on shoving our faces because we have to start a liquid diet?! Of course not. But let's not pretend that we aren't going have to learn to love an old friend in a new way, and that's a hard thing to look at as an addict.

We CAN do this. For most of us, we are scheduled and getting everything ready. We just need to remember why we are doing this. We don't want to live like this anymore. Every pound we put on now, is one more pound we are from goal at surgery day.

This thread has been awesome, but lets talk about what we SUCCEEDED in eating or avoiding, instead of what we failed in!!

Today, I succeeded in by switching to a Decaf vanilla roast coffee, using skim milk and Splenda. instead of my beloved Coffeemate vanilla Creamer. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, and now it's one more little change I can make to change my lifestyle. I even avoiding snacking on my kids Goldfish crackers, a bad habit of mine!

Now you all go. What did you succeed in eating/avoiding?!? No more beating ourselves up!! We can and ARE doing this. Even if we have to drag each other there!!! ;)

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
