Thanks for this thread. I've been looking for a place for true confessions. I've been having one gigantic meal for weeks now. I just eat anything and everything I want. I've never been like this before. It's kinda gross. Anyone else do this?.

"food funerals" are not necessary, food did not die. We only will be eating smaller portions of it post WLS and for some foods much less frequently.

Congratulations on your surgery in 10 days.

I didn't go crazy but I did have a week between my last weigh-in and the start of my pre-op diet where I ate something I loved each day. My last meal was garlic bread and Caesar salad - I honestly wish I had MORE salads during that time, fresh veggies are what I miss the most.

My last meal before the 2 week liver shrinking diet was hot Buffalo wings, fries, and tuna steak. Actually shared with someone else so I didn't eat a large amount of food. So yummy!! Also had an frozen umbrella drink. Now I am at goal I still eat this stuff on rare occasions... But it ends up being one wing, 1 fry and a couple bites of tuna steak. I totally gave up real high calorie alcoholic drinks.< /p>

I fully admit I had a 2 week food funeral. Went for Mexican like 4 times, ordered pizza 3 times. Had Italian. Had all my favorite fast food--Sonic, Whataburger, Raising Canes, Jack in the Box. Sushi, cake and McDonalds Breakfast almost every morning

Me too. I ate everything I knew I wouldn't be able to have.

I had a lot of medical issues and haven't been able to eat much since February. I had McDonald's Breakfast twice. But for me this surgery means I can MORE variety than I've been able to for over a year. So I'm excited for 6 months from now. I was Sleeved on 10/10.

Bacon sandwich and dulce de lecce cake+custard...but it was sometime well before I started my pre op diet. I m 5 months out and I don't think I'll ever try that cake again.Anything sugary makes me feel funny, not sick, light headed. And we are talking here about a fruit yogurt not an icecream or chocolate bar. Haven't tasted that in 6 months.

Had permission to eat a few meals at my moms memorial, a week before surgery. I had duck, escargot, lobster ravioli,(to die for), and was very happy, as I found out at the last minute when my surgery was and had no opportunity for a last meal. I had cut carbs a few months before surgery, had lost 24 lbs, so I didn't waste t

hat opportunity to eat carbs at all.

Went to the surgeon's office on Monday and was told to start pre-op diet the next so I didn't have time to have any food funerals. Besides, I didn't want to add any more pounds to my already high number on the scale.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
