I absolutely had food funerals before my surgery.  I think we all do, but being healthy is way better than any food tastes!

Hi,

I didn't have a food funeral.  I figured the previous 40 years of over-eating were enough.  Once I got started with the pre-surgery diet, I didn't want to lose momentum. Now, when I watch people eating normal meals while I eat my tiny portions, I wish I could have a big meal, just once... But when all is said and done, I am so happy to be a normal weight and more mobile, and healthier. 

best wishes

Carol

I definitely went to my favorite restaurant.  Didn't gorge, but enjoyed a "full" meal.  Really don't miss it 2 years later!

I didn't have a food funeral, but I enjoyed one of my favorite meals before my surgery morning. Had a Greek salad with grilled buffalo chicken! I still enjoy them now,  Just smaller portions.

I had one and I have no regrets! :) 

I tailgated ALL day the day before I started my liquid diet! Looking back now I couldn't even imagine now. At the time I had all my favorite football snacks!

I had a weekend of last meals :)  I don't regret it at all.  My surgery was two days after my birthday, so I was on liquids for my birthday.  So the weekend before I started liquids, we celebrated and ate out at a few restaurants.  It was great.  Pretty sure it hasn't made a bit of difference.

I had them and don't regret them.  Especially the all you can Brazilian steakhouse.  Turns out, that is really the only one I needed to do.  All the rest, I can still eat, just in much smaller quantities and limited visits.  The Brazilian place would be a total waste of money now.

I went to a Brazilian steakhouse 6 weeks post-op.  Fogo, specifically.  My BIL and his fiancee were in town and my partner wanted to show them "how real Americans eat."  LOL.  I got the salad bar only option and it was perfect.  I can't imagine I'd go to one of my own free will any time soon!

I live in an area with a big Brazilian community, and have learned there's two types of Brazilian churrascaria: the all-you-can-eat kind as you describe, and the pay-by-the-pound kind! Keep an eye out for the latter.
