I had some Soup yesterday but there was a little bit of meat in it and I ate it....I feel so bad, but I've been strong since then and I have no intention to cheat again, but will it make my liver bigger? Do I have anything to worry about?

Slap yourself on the back of the hand and don't do it again.

One little piece won't hurt but that can snowball into another and another and another.

You have to try your hardest to stick to the plan. The band comes with rules too. If you plan on following the band rules for the rest of your life, you should be able to follow the pre-op rules for a couple of weeks.

I did the same in my pre-op, learn from it, dont beat yourself up, and get right back on it. I am 17 days into pre-op, in the first week, I had some wine, and hot dog from bowling alley and still lost 26 pounds. Just get right back on it.

No, meat won't harm your liver. It's carbs you need to really watch out for.

No harm, no foul--now follow the rules from here on out!

Good luck :smile2:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
