I Cheated On My Pre-Op... Now I Feel Guilty.. Help!

[prinxs 41]

I am on my 5th day and I have been doing well with my liquid diet, but I gave in the temptation and ate a chicken gyro. Not only do I feel guilty now but also makes me nervous if it will hinder with my procedure. This also made me realize how horrible of relationship I have with food.

My surgery date is on 9/27

just try not to do it again....i am sure you are fine

remember, just try to follow your doctors orders.

Give yourself a break. Get back on the Pre-op diet and look forward not back. If we all could stick to a diet religiously, no one would be banded! Just do your best and be happy! I had a hard time with it too and the surgery went well last week!

Thank you guys for the support. I will have to work extra hard bc I am always around people who are eating good food! This is will be a tough ride but I can make it.

I like what you sad. I think we are put on the diet, aside from shrinking the liver, just to kick start the diet process. I do not think perfection is expected. Do not beat yourself up.

I also think it is harder because of the hunger pangs of a normal sized stomach. I have had a headache for the 3 days I have been on this Quest. I pray it is better once my stomach can only hold a small amount.

I was recently banded on sept 14 and I cheated twice on my Pre op. Besides feeling terribly guilty I was worried my liver wouldn't shrink enough. Came through the surgery with no complications. I do regret the slip ups I had but relievedy surgery was fine

Prinxs, it's OK. Forgive yourself you're human. Today is a new day.
