the 'last meal'

[SAM55]

Hi

Has anyone since being offered the surgery found they are viewing certain types of food as their 'last meal' as in what you get before you are executed? I have found that since I was told I could have it, having been under assessment for over a year, there are certain foods/meals - the ones you don't have very often such as a takeaway, or certain treats, I am thinking 'this will be the last time'! The biggest example of this was my trip to IKEA last week which is something i only do about once a year, where i had their famous meatballs, and purchased some 'green cakes' which I love and pigged out on on Sunday.

I was only told about three weeks ago and I am expecting at least a four month wait, so am hoping that this will wear off before then!

I have my sleeve in two months, and I'm getting the same feeling. Trying to get it under control so I don't put on a stone before surgery

I am ashamed to say I had my ' last meal ' on Sunday before my surgery ..
At the top of Portsdown Hill , in Portsmouth , is a burger stall called Monster Micks .
This is no ordinary burger stand let me tell you . I don't like burgers very much but will,
eat one from here .
I had a single burger pat with cheese , no bap .
But
I did have a portion of chips , these are the reason I go there . They are thick chunky chips which they prick while they are frying so you get all those super crispy edges and they are fried until the perfect dark golden . Omg they are so good ! I did resist the choice of having a hand full of cheese thrown on the top though !
I only ate half the portion and broke the rest into little pieces for the 100s of crows and seagulls that gather there
Better fat birds , than this fat bird !

I have been doing my 'last meal' quite regularly since getting the OK. Things that I haven't eaten for a long time and don't miss are suddenly very appealing! At hospital I had chocolate cake to celebrate my sleep apnoea results. It looked lovely but tasted horrible . I also stopped at a garage on the way home where there is a Greggs and had a sausage roll - just because I still can... for now. The power of suggestion is very strong. There was something on TV a couple of weeks ago about Greggs sausage rolls being the best!

Off on my hols next week, probably the only one I will get this year and certainly the only one before surgery so I am sure there will be other instances, but have promised I will be good when I get back. :break_diet:

Now, do I fancy a burger????
