I am 6 weeks post-op and I honestly can't remember what food I ate to cheat but I do remember cheating one or two meals. When I had my surgery though my surgeon said my liver looked great and that he could really tell that I stayed on my pre-op diet.

I didn't have a pre-op major diet to follow. They only thing I had to really do was just drink the Clear Liquids the day before my surgery. I went out to eat with friends I haven't seen in a year the day before my liquid day and had absolutely no problems.

Wow!! That's amazing I wonder why every doctor is so different ?? Some on clear only for two weeks ! I'm clear but with else one meal for dinner ! It's so different ! But lucky u ! So my cheating should be okay for what I did eat !

I cheated everyday on my preop diet. The doctor was ready to do my surgery so I only had 5 clear liguid days. They tell you that stuff about shrinking the liver but there is no way you can shrink the liver in just 5 days. I am one week post op and doing great.

My was like 5 days only because first on july 8th surgery was going to be July 26th on July 9 we moved it for July 19 and on July 10 was moved to July 16th. I did it the best that I could, ate some cheese crackers the night before, everything went well.

My surgery is next Monday and I'm on the liquid diet right now. I haven't cheated yet but seriously considering it. Someone mentioned that if you do cheat, try to make sure it is something with little to no carbs. The shrinking of the liver happens when you go into ketosis from not eating carbs- so cheat with low carb foods to keep that going. Of course, most people are going to want carbs if they are going to cheat.. I'm just craving something that is not liquid...

I also cheated in my 2 week liquid diet. The nut told me I could eat tuna or an egg or chicken but just a little instead of just a shake. I did break down a few times and ate bad things but for 3 days before surgery I only drank shakes. I was afraid they would find actual food in there so I was really good for 3 days. I lost 15 pounds in those 2 weeks so I did fine.

Michelle, I think I'm having my surgery (next week) at the same place you did. I see your surgeon was Dr. Hoehn. Mine is Dr. Hamilton at KC Bariatric.

I wont lie. I did but i didnt. I ate grilled chicken subs from subway and stayed under 1500 cals a day for the last five days then did liquids the day before surgery with the Miralax that the doc ordered. I lost 7lbs prior to surgery.

      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.
