Did you cheat?



Recommended Posts

Yup! The first week I allowed myself 1 or 2 boiled egg whites (pure Protein, minimal carbs) and raw veggies (celery and cucumber) (again, little to no carbs). I tried to cheat in a way that wouldn't Hinder my weight loss pre-op and the second week I was by the book. The first 4-5 days were the absolute worst, after that I felt more in control and slightly less miserable. Do your best to do your best! And try not to worry to much, you'll get through it. If you do have a bad day, pull yourself up, dust yourself off and start fresh the next day!

I have cheated twice once on the third day and once today. I think I am over it though and its not going to happen again. My surgery is June 26th I still have what ten days to go. I'm going to exercise and stick to my liquids. I need this surgery but it has been one of the hardest things ever to do!...

Has anyone ever cheated on their pre op diet and what did you eat??

I cheated 1x but I tried to justify it but still was guilty and didn't do it anymore. I had chicken broth with saltines crushed up in it. I thought...hmmm still liquid right? Pre op is rough no lie..at least the liquids post op u aren't starving for food like pre op

Post-op is SO much easier....there's no comparison. Not hard to not eat when you don't feel like youre starving to death! It does get boring but still was nothing compared to pre-op hell, at łeast for me :)

I am having my surgery Wednesday June 26 and my doctor did not put me on a pre op diet only rules diet rules are two days before surgery. Everywhere that I read people are on a pre op diet anywhere from 1-3 weeks and now I am wandering if this will affect my surgery. I guess we will see ..

I cheated. I had a food funeral!! I was 248 on my first doctor visit and 2 months later on DOS I was 252. But now I'm 220. It's so much easier post surgery.

      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.
