Start again tomorrow and don't sabotage yourself with negative self-talk-- if you tell yourself you can't do it, then I bet you won't be able to. But, I KNOW you can. We've all been there-- take it a day at a time and you will get through this.

I think you will be fine....just try to stick to what your doctor said. As for me, I did not have to do any pre-surgery diet so I am pretty sure you will be okay.

Its 5 days..you so can do it..I know its hard...you didn' sabotage yourself and I am sure you will be fine for surgery just try your best to stick with it..the doctor must feel its best and you certainly dont want to possibly cause an issue with getting surgery over a buritto:) hang in there...you will be fine..just try and do your best at sticking with it..you are going to need that self discipline through this process so you need to find it in yourself! Good luck!

Hang in there - you did not sabatoge yourself with one burritto but start new tomorrrow and after the first couple of days it will get easier - remmeber your ultimate goal~ :) The purpose of the liquid diet is to shrink your liver so the stomach is more assessible for the surgeon. If yu have been on a high Protein diet before surgery you normally do not need a liquid diet .. I am sure you will be okie dokie :P

I guess it's all relative... some of have fattier livers than others... it just depends on each patient.. but i don't think one burrito will make much difference... as long as it stops there

Good luck!!

It's only 5 days, well 4 now... remind yourself plenty of people have to do it for TWO WEEKS. If they can do it so can you.

I agree, don't be too hard on yourself! The first day of my liquid diet I was so hungry I couldn't stand it, and I ate a chicken sandwich at the end of the day. I still ended up losing 25 pouinds before surgery, so don't worry. As long as you are being aware and take everything one step at a time you'll do fine! Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
