Question support question

Ok, so I have my date and I have been working on my lifestyle changes for many months now. I drink only water, started excersing three days a week at Curves, and walking one day a week. Have cut most sugar, fried foods, and bread out of my diet. My parents see this and my mom is very supportive of me. She joined Curves right along side of me.

My dad however, who has been the most critical of my weight all my life, has been kind of unsure about the whole thing. So the other night, we take my daughter out to dinner to a very nice rest. for a going away party. (she left for freshman year in college) I had given him a gift cert. I had for the rest. to help pay for dinner. He told me that to pay me back he wanted to bring me back before my surgery. I told him I was not having a "fairwell" dinner, that I was not pigging out before I had the surgery. He and I got in a small argument about it and he finnally said, that "I was not old enough to understand."

So my question is this how many of you had a "last meal."

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I was put on a protein diet 2 weeks before my surgery, but I have to admit that the night I went to my first seminar before I made the decision to have surgery.. I went to my favorite restaurant and had my favorite meal. After I made the decision I was trying hard to lose some weight before surgery to get my body prepared and I was following all the rules. I guess some people would call what I had a farewell dinner, but at that time I wasn't even signed up for surgery.. was going to see if I was finally ready for it. But that's just me. Keep up the good work.

Well i must confess. I did have my last meal or last supper as my hubby called it. We went to Red Lobster and it was good. I didnt eat more than I ususally do. Funny thing was I thought I would never eat at Red Lobster again. Well Ive gone back twice now and I just eat healthier now and dont eat the bread and etc.. But I did have my last supper teh day before my all liquid diet requirement.

I started my 2 week liquid 2 days early...wanted to make sure I could really do it! So 2 days before my surgery we went out to eat as a family and I got a huge salad. It was the best salad I ever ate. I hear that a lot of people have their "last supper", but I think that I was too scared that it was going to throw something off and I would have to postpone the surgery.

I had planned to go eat a "last meal" but it didn't work out the way I wanted....lol

My kids came in the day before my surgery and they wanted to take my grandson to Chuckie Cheese. So we went there. I ended up eating one piece of pizza and had a glass of water.... Their pizza is not the best in the world...LOL. But it was fine, I enjoyed watching my 17 month old grandson have a blast.
