First let me say I have been very disciplined on my liquid diet the past two weeks and lost 14 pounds. BUT, after working so hard, I cheated tonight and had 8 oz. of Skinnygirl wine. Total of 160 calories. It was great, but now feeling guilty.

Not cheating, old way of thinking, you just did not make the best choice. It could have been worse, it could have been a regular drink and not a Skinny Girl wine. I just had a brownine and loved every minute of it, it was within my limits, I wanted it and i ate it. So move on and like everyone above said, what is done is done.

I am on my pre op diet and around day 5 I had a cup of chili. I had a total meltdown and was so sick and tired of the liquid diet and of being hungry all the time.

I felt really guilty as well. Havent cheated since. And I just realized it is 7.45pm and I forgot to have my dinner shake at 5pm.

Like everyone else said I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. However I would be curious to know tomorrow if it causes any problems with gas or your pouch. My doc told me alcohol would irritate the pouch just like caffeine. Anyone had any experience with that and know if it's true or not???

      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.
