i just cheated on my diet 3 days before surgery



Recommended Posts

Its 2:50am and I was starving for a pancake, so I made on pancake and used just a little butter and one tablespoon of maple Syrup. So u think this will cause my surgery to be cancelled next Tuesday????

If you've otherwise done well, I doubt it would be enough to cancel your surgery. Get back on track, though - you really want to be in the best position possible to succeed!

The diet the dr put me on was a 2 week diet of 1200 calories per which includes 5 Protein Shakes or bars and one 5oz meal. In that 2 week time period I have stuck to the diet minus 3 days. One day I broke down and ate 2 crunchy beef tacos and a small coke and the 2 other days I had one pancake. Other than that I have had no sugar or sweets and have had no carbonated drinks of any kind and I have been drinking about 2 quarts of crystal light per day. As of last Tuesday I put myself on a more strict diet which contains of chicken or beef broth, Decaf coffee, sugar free Jello, nonfat cottage cheese and crystal light. So since Tuesday I have not consumed more than 700 calories per day minus today's screw up of eating a pancake. I pray everything is going to be ok and the dr won't cancel my surgery.

No worries about your surgery. Probably not advisable to do it again but you'll be fine. Just think - pretty soon you won't be able to eat a whole pancake if you tried:)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
