I've found that one disadvantage of letting folks know I'm have wls is now everyone wants to take me on one last hurrah. I'm getting comments like oh you won't be able to have this and that anymore. While its okay that folks want to socialize it is starting to become an issue to try and accommodate the request. It's gotta a bit political at work and folks I'd like to see I might not be able to since preop starts next Wednesday. Oh well if I don't get to eat with folks it's a good prep for postop times.

Anyone else getting the let's eat for goodness sake?

It's like offering a lung cancer patient one last cigarette.

You will be able to eat again. I would decline.

At 10 months, there's nothing I can't eat. I just can't hold as much. So you won't have to give up your favorite foods for very long. But you might be surprised, like I was, that you no longer want those old foods and actually crave healthier options.

Here's my video on food funerals.

I have to tell you that this video made me feel so relieved. In going to use your method. As I listened to the video I did exactly as you told and was able to feel my chest loosen. Thanks so much for sharing

I went to my pre-op appt yesterday and the doctor says to me " do you know what you'll be having for your last meal?" And I told her that I won't be having a "last meal" because I'm ready for change..... I'm ready to get healthier and don't want to go crazy... U know?
