12 Days On The Liquid Diet And Today I Ate Something! :(



Recommended Posts

I had been doing so well, not even hungry. Saturday, I ate a cheeseburger. Sunday, 2 bites of a slice of pizza, today so scrambled eggs. I dont even know why. My surgery is Wednesday. Tomorrow I do all clear and will make sure I stick to it, but should I tell my surgeon about my slips? I know its more about the liver than the stomach, I just feel so guilty!

I wouldn't tell him, but I would make sure until Wednesday I was extra diligent on the Clear Liquids.< /p>

I would tell him, just so he has a heads up. All that matters is that your healthy for surgery, not that he may shae a finger at you. I did ask my doctor what would happen if I ate something during the liquid phase and he said it shouldn't matter since the main point is to lose as much belly fat as you can in that phase... Of course they don't want us to eat though.

Does your office have a coordinator that you email with? If so you could tell them... Maybe a little less intimidating than in front of the doc face to face.

I just got off the phone with the pizza police - they now know where you live

stop kicking yourself for a couple of little slip-ups

if you would feel better telling the surgeon - go for it

best with your WLS

I wasn't told to be on a liquid diet before my surgery except for the day prior to it. Two weeks before I was put on a low calorie food program, not just liquids, so I wouldn't worry about it and I wouldn't tell.

I also only needed to be on a clear liquid diet the day prior only. The day before that was a family reunion and I ate quite a bit. My surgery went just fine with no problems. You'll be just fine.

      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.
