Frozen devil dog. But it's my time of the month. My doctor just had me on a low cal diet so I actually didnt go over my daily calories. But I haven't really lost any weight :(

I cheated a few times..once in pizza and another time on roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. If i did cheat...i only did it once during the day and didn't have an entire cheat day. Not that i recommend you cheat on pre-op but mine was all liquids for two weeks and i was having a hard time. Still managed to lose 12 lbs and had surgery a week ago. Post op i haven't cheated because i am afraid to do damage to the staple line. Good luck!

I wanted to cheat but I stuck to the diet. I figured the more fat of the liver the easier surgery would go! So glad I did as I am 1 week out and everything went GREAT!!!

I haven't cheated, my doctor has me on a no/low carb diet, but I have felt the pull to cheat.

I am on day 7 of a 2 week liquid diet. I have not cheated but i will tell you that I do not understand what is up with today. I'm hungrier today than I have been in the last week. It's only 2:00 in the afternoon and I've already had 3 shakes, a ton of Jello and 3 popsicles. I just finished my 3rd shake and man.....I am so hungry.

I won't cheat. I've come too far to even think about it. I've lost 12 lbs already......Keep on keeping on!!! One week to go.

I am 1 week into my 2 week pre op diet! My diet consists of 4 Protein shakes a day plus 6-8 servings of chicken/fish , raw veggies, yogurt. I have not cheated at all but today temptation was showing its ugly face! Just left surgeons office for pre op visit. My test results showed increased liver enzymes ( of course I have a fatty liver). As I was sitting waiting it hit me!! THIS IS REAL!!!! This time next week I will be sleeved!!!! Oh my I never had a real "food funeral" and it hit me like a brick!! The food porn was going crazy thru my mind!!! I actually stopped at wawa!! But NOTHING inside the store was appealing to me! Not even their mint iced coffee that I used to live on!!!! I grabbed 2 hard boiled eggs and a bottle of Water and was on my way!!! What happened to the old me??? Is she gone forever???? Thank goodness!!!! I have no real cravings!!!! Already??? Wow!!!! I'm in TOTAL SHOCK LOL

Yep, I cheated.... A bite here and there. However, I am trying my best to stick to the diet. I lost 11 lbs in 11 days. Not soo bad...and that was with a little cheat here and there. :rolleyes:

A lot of Pre-op People have a " Last meal" . My Last meal was some mexican food, but i stopped less than halfway through becuase i felt so guilty about cheating myself.

      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.
