So disappointed in myself!

oklafarmgal,

I wasn't strictly by the book when it came to my pre-op diet. Don't let it get you down. We all experience setbacks. It's what you do afterwards that counts. Tomorrow is another chance to start over.

I know it will. I don't know what came over me, but I just had to have something. I guess I'm pathetic. Lol....

There are different diets. I can have 2 Protein shakes and a can of hardy Soup at night ....

[kristikay 60]

Okay I have been thinking about this because I also use the sugar free carnation instant Breakfast on my plan. One package is 5 grams of Protein which adds up to 20 grams a day. I don't think calorie wise or protein wise you are getting enough. If you mixed it with skim milk you would get 52 grams of protein. Is there any reason you can't use skim milk instead of Water. I think if you were getting more protein you would feel better about the diet. Not that you should go against what your doctor told you but I would double check.

My doc allows fruit, cream of wheat, veggies, broth, low fat crackers, but no meat of any kind and no whole milk products or sweets...so you see the diets really do vary

[Ejami 18]

Forgot to mention sugar free yogurt, sugar free pudding, low fat cottage cheese..

We call that "hangry " at my house. It ain't pretty.

I like that mind if I borrow it?

Dean for the record it was just a couple of bites not the whole can of tomatoes! Don't make the poor thing take on more shame than necessary!

You going to be disappointed of me because I ate 6 days out of 8. I realize that I'm a food addict. I thought that I was over weight becuase my pcos. I'm mad at myself because before I eat I would tell myself is ok. Is only a littel bit but eat a whole plate of rice Beans and pork shop. And drink a lot of Water. Having the sugar free yello, pudding and good Protein drinks and clear low sodium Soup. I just keep think could something go wrong on the surgery help please. My surgery is 02/15

I am fortunate that my doctor is not having me do any pre-op diet. I think that I will do a bunch of Protein Shakes just for the fact that I gained 4 pounds since my last weigh in. My final weigh in is on Feb 19, with a surgery date of Feb. 25. Just nothing to eat or drink after midnight the day of surgery. Not too bad for me, except I have to be at the hospital at 8.30 and surgery isn't slated until 11.30 and you have to walk past the Tim Hortons Bake Shop in the hospital to get there. Ohhh, the smell is intoxicating.

Wow that's a hard one! The doctors put you on the pre op diet for lots of reasons. Doctors will even put different patients on different diets depending on health issues....

My best advice is that you call and tell the doctor because your surgery is only 2 days away!

He knows best whether you will be ok or not

Good luck to you! And do call tomorrow! You don't want the surgeon to open you up and then not do the surgery because of the liver or anything else.

Thank you Laura for conferring me. I will call tomorrow I promise. I spoke to him yesterday he told me I could eat but not to much. But I feel like I gave up on my self.I know I'm not allowed to be eating but everything looks good to me like if this was the last time I was going to eat.

Good! Let me know what he has to say!

I think a lot, if not most of us, have serious food addictions. It's what brings us to having this surgery.

It's really important to have someone to talk about this with. I talk to a therapist because I eat for many reasons, not just hunger!

Having this surgery makes you not as hungry.. but it doesn't change your head and how you

Feel about or Comfort your self with food.< /p>

That is something that is very important to work on too.

when people gain weight after a year or two with this surgery is because they never "dealt" with the reasons they eat...

I hope my rambling made sense
