TracyZ 11 Posted July 27, 2012 Exactly at least the cheat was not and not 5 days after surgery as the repercussions are so much worse-- Move on and behave... You can do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends on what your pre-op diet is. Gatorade is considered a clear liquid. However Gatorade G2 would be a better choice. 1 Sharon's last chance reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supersweetums 1,164 Posted July 27, 2012 I am mad at myself, I cheated & on the 5th day I still have 10 days left before my surgery grrrr. I'm so stupid. I am 20 months post op, below goal, and have eaten stuff that is not good for me. Beating yourself is the worse thing to do. It gets you into that cycle of shame and guilt, eating more because you are upset, and then feeling even more guilty. Tomorrow is a new day and a chance to start fresh! If we never had temptations, if we never made mistakes, we would not be human. It does not mean that is ok to eat whatever you want, but it does mean it is ok to forgive yourself and do better next time.

timetochange 8 Posted July 28, 2012 Would it be really bad if I had a grilled chicken and salad right now? - My surgery is 18 days away and I am on day 6 of all liquid. Seriously? Is this considered a cheat? 1 Sharon's last chance reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this considered a cheat? It's a cheat if goes against your doctors prescribed diet. Is it gonna cause any harm 18 days pre-op, no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brittlynn019 0 Posted July 28, 2012 I was only on a 5 day liquid diet..and i cheated 3 days before surgery i had a grilled chicken sandwhich...mistake it was....but my surgery went 100% well..but dont make it a habit...they do it for a reason...make sure you stick to your diet and hang in there...after the surgery you wont be hungry at all....so keep up the good work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this considered a cheat? 18 days of all liquid before surgery sounds really excessive to me. My surgeon didn't have a pre-op diet at all. Had a sandwich the night before surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
