You only hurt yourself when you "cheat" on your diet...and you should not feel horrible or guilty for non-compliance.

What you should do is refocus on your goals and reasons for wanting the band placed...and increase your determination to be compliant. Not complying with your surgeons instructions so early into your weight loss journey does not bode well for long term success...

Best wishes...

You need willpower to succeed with the band. The band isn't going to stop you from eating unhealthy food, or even overeating (there is a way to eat "around" the band). Only you can do that. You have to want it and be willing to make sacrifices. Now on a positive note, you can do this!!! Make a list of reasons you want to get healthy. Make that your focus. Do not have temptations in your house. We all slip up but the important thing is not to keep repeating the same mistakes and make it into a habit. Call your doctor or nutritionist and let them know and find out if that will effect your surgery. You may want to consider pushing your surgery back if you don't feel ready yet.

      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.
