mamamia89 22 Posted October 10, 2012 Shhhhh you'll be fine. One potato wedge shouldn't be a problem. It's just frustrating. I've come this far with no problems had people eat my favorite food right in front of me and then boom! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nikkinikole 3 Posted October 10, 2012 During my prepp diet I cheated once and ate three cookie then I cheated again and ate a bite of my daughters KFC chicken!! Trust no one is perfect I still lost 17 pounds. Now be sure to NOT cheat getting closer to the day of because certain foods swell ur stomach and if ur doc is anything like mine he won't do the surgery if ur stomach is enlarged, and from what I've heard they CAN tell!
