Is anyone having a food funeral?

My surgery is March 19, I have been on liquid pre-op since Jan. 10, I have lost 26 pounds even though I was never told to lose any weight. To begin with I was barely a 40 BMI which is what my insurance requires. Now that my surgery is right around the corner I have been breaking the diet periodically. I plan on getting back on track tonight for dinner and then all tomarrow. Monday is my bowl prep day so I surely wont break it that day. I, of course have been feeling guilty but at the same think I should live it up while I can. Am I wrong?

I'm scheduled for April 1st, I've thought about it, but afraid if I gain any weight my doctor won't do the surgery....well I did have a coke with my dinner last night instead of water, but surely that doesn't count haha.

I did my food funeral before starting my pre op diet.. I was on that for a week.. so the day before that started.. I went to texas roadhouse for a nice prime rib lol... but the beauty of it all.. I can only now eat a 1/3 of that if even that.. still will be tasty..but just will have lots of leftovers for sure.. havent been out to eat yet.. still enjoying the fact I cannot eat much at all..and how much food doesnt interest me at all anymore...

Thanks Nacy and Sara you girls have made me feel better :P

I wish I knew then what I know now! I went crazy before my pre-op diet and gained 12 pounds because I was freaking out about never eating again like I want! Fettuccine Alfredo,pizza ,chips, some more chips LOL subs... I'm 3 months post op and If I did it all over again I would have not done it like that. Today I can eat fettuccine Alfredo,pizza,chips the only difference is the amount! congrats on your upcoming surgery this is gonna be the best thing you have ever done for you self
