babygirl901 173 Posted September 28, 2012 Honestly, you shouldn't feel bad. You're not the first or the last that cheated on their pre op diet. I know I did. lol. Talk to your dr. He MAY allow you to eat small amounts of food during the day. My best friend was on the two week liquid diet, but her surgeon allowed her to have light salads if needed.

luvlife 43 Posted September 28, 2012 Just make sure you lose whatever amount of weight your surgeon wants you to. I think everyone cheated on the liquid diet. But tomorrow is a new day. You can do this! It is so much easier after the surgery! surgeversary 7/24/12, highest weight 267, surgery weight 262, current weight 216 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bert_n_ernie 60 Posted September 28, 2012 I cheated. The only thing I want to add is don't make yourself vomit. It could cause issues that may result in your surgery having to be postponed. Just keep telling yourself how important this surgery is to you. New Life Started 07/24/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rurias 23 Posted September 28, 2012 I totally understand what your going through I cheated the first and third day of my diet and then after reading other people's story that cheated I decided it wasn't worth canceling my surgery. I am 2 days almost 3 days post op and healing fine. I'm still sore but it's getting better everyday. It's hard when everyone around you can eat but you can't good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLCoggin 1,788 Posted September 28, 2012 Talk to the professionals that are on your surgery team. That's what they are there for. I don't think there is one person on this forum who is not willing to give you all of the support that we can. But the vast majority of us are not doctors, psychologists, physician assistants and nutritionists. We are not medical professionals with years of education and many more years of experience helping folks just like us - and just like you. You undeniably will not be the first person to ask for their help and you undeniably will not be the last. You are on a journey of lifestyle change. This may well be your first and possibly biggest challenge - find the courage to ask your team for help. You'll be glad you did. 2 LosingItForMe2011 and babygirl901 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LosingItForMe2011 320 Posted September 30, 2012 DL is right though. You're surgeon is there to help. I know for me I started counseling prior to starting the process and all during it because I knew I had to work on the head hunger and reasons I ate in the first place. It sure has helped! Lots of good books on it as well. 1 DLCoggin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mommaof4zs 3 Posted September 30, 2012 Keep up the good work. I know it can be tough, really tough, but try and look at the big picture and what your end goal is you're working for. We are all here for you, this is an absolute no judgement zone!!! 1 DLCoggin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frankt04 80 Posted September 30, 2012 Lol I know I cheated, I kept thinking of that one food I wouldn't get to have again, and of course the Chinese buffet!!!!!! But now it's been 3 years and I still never even feel hungry! Just don't make your self through up close to your surgery, it stresses the stomach big time, your better off to just finish what your eating and beat your self up with the guilt... Keep you head high you'll be fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
