Yes you should be fine. I cheated as well. My husband came back from Iraq and we had a big party for him. I cheated with chips and dip, taco with avocado, margarita and alot of other things. Oh yeah a chocolate covered strawberry like 3 of them. I was banded on July 14th and my recovery and surgery are great. Just make sure to stay on the liquid for the two weeks so you do not upset your stomach which can make you feel nauseated. Good luck in your journey.
