So eat a taco...why not? As long as you aren't on liquids or mushys, eat a taco....I had one for lunch Wednesday. I had the one I couldn't eat for supper, yum.

if u havent had them since surgery..be careful. i had my first one after my first fill, and well, the shell caused me to get stuck. i know it wasnt the meat cuz i had taco meat prior to that and was fine. If you can stop at just one, you may be ok..but tacos are kinda like chips, at least for me, i want more than one lol. Good thing i got stuck or i would have had more than one.

You are only putting yourself at risk. The pre-op diet is meant to clear your liver of fat to make the surgery safer for you. By clearing the liver, it is smaller and easier to maneuver around. The instruments they use to hold onto it don't slip off as easily, because the outer coating of fat is also gone.

Keep your focus on your upcoming surgery. You can do this.

I'm sorry, but this is about as immature and irresponsible as it gets.

If you want support, ask for it. But to say if no one responds in a certain amount of time you're doing it? Like some threat almost? Seriously, this is downright stupid. Either take this surgery seriously and do what you know is necessary or just walk away now but posts like this are ridiculous.

Your on your pre op diet, please try try try to NOT eat that taco. The basis is to get the size of your liver down, and if you keep with the diet you should be fine for them to do the surgery. Think of how you will feel if they open you up/ then close you right up because your liver did not shrink in size! Think of those feelings vs what the couple minutes of the taco heaven is like! After your banded and on regular food, then give the taco a whirl if you really want it. That is my suggestion.

Im on a low carb diet, so I only ate the meat, so I am ok..... Sorry, but sometimes I need someone to knock some sense in me. The poeple around me just say its ok, that won't hurt. Thank you all

I didn't mean to sound like that..... It is just harder when you are with people that are always trying to tell you not to get the LB.. I do take it very serious.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
