Re: I'm planning The Last Supper

[Guest guest]

Well I haven't been through surgery yet but I'm planning a similar last

summer event for myself. This is what I've got down for my eating-fest

marathon one week pre-surgery so far:

1) Pasta - i'm italian, i don't know how i will live without pasta al

dente for so long

2) Some good thin crispy crusted pizza

3) Nachos with cheese and guacamole

4) A nice juicy steak - even if i can't chew it whole it will be a long

time befoe i can eat it again

5) Apples - chopped up into crunchy pieces

6) Cotoletta milanese a.k.a. breadcrusted veal Viennese style with

little choppped tomatoes and basil poured on top

7)SUSHI!!

8)Pad thai with prawns

9) Chicken cocunut curry thai style

10) Shrimp and prawns any style - i love them

11) Crispy spicy beef

And i've also a list of things i'm trying to avoid because they will be

the only thing i will be eating for a while and i don't want to get

sick of them already:

1) Milkshakes - i love banana milkshakes

2) jello

3) rice

4) soups in general including chicken broth which personally i really

like

5) ice-cream

6) yoghurt

LOL, I know, I sound insane but i'm not. I'm just big into pre-

organizing things:-)

Let us know what your last supper is like!

I think the pre-op eating marathon was the best part of the

ordeal...Gain weight? No problem, lost it in about 2 days Don't

try to force it into one meal. Definitely spread it out for about a

week before. It's also a good excuse to get together with friends

before you will want to ignore them for a while later. As for me, I

had:

-Thick crust extra cheesy spingone pizza

-Mozzarella sticks

-Philly steak sandwich

-Lots of crispy french fries

-Chicken Lad Nar

-Scones

-Cookies

-My Boyfriend's version of chicken alfredo and broccoli

-Carrots (I could eat a while bag in a sitting. I think I may have

been a rabbit in a past life...)

-Apples

-We had 2 nacho/margarita parties at my house.

-And finally, my last meal was at Chili's. My mom and I shared

chips and salsa and then I had a steak.

It's official, now I'm hungry! Out of all of that and at 4 weeks

post-op the only thing on that list I could eat right now is the

noodles in the alfredo and the toppings from the nachos. The

lesson? EAT IT WHILE YOU CAN! Not that you didn't already know

that Bon Apetit!
