Surgery is Tuesday. Been on my pre-op diet (min 70 grams protein and no more than 30 grams of carbs, low fat) for 4 weeks. Didn't really have food funerals or a "last meal". Tomorrow is only clear liquids so I thought well I guess this will be my last solid meal for a few weeks what would I like to have but stay within my pre-op diet. So, I decided that I wanted a steak. I know it will probably be a good long while bfore I'll be able to tolorate it. So, we go to one of the local steak houses and I get a filet minon the leanest steak I could think of and grilled vegis and a side salad. The first bite of my steak was heavenly but every bite after that was flavorless and I did not care for the zuccini or tomatoes on the grilled vegi scewer. Kind of wished I would have just gotten the stuff and grilled it at home. It would have had more flavor I think.

There are some meals that just taste better on the home grill. I am sorry to hear that it didn't work to be all that you hoped for. Good luck on your clear liquids.

Thanks. All fluids today. Yum yum.
