SandyM 1,956 Posted October 23, 2013 You guys are starting a great journey. Take measurements of your body as you are likely to see changes there even when you don't see them on the scales. I wish I had done this. Good luck. 3 Millyed, dylanmiles23 and swankybangles reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for the support. I need it! If you feel the need to cheat, maybe you are not ready. I never cheated because I was afraid of the 'what ifs' etc. Also, if your liver is not reduced in size they will not band you. That is another reason for the pre-op diet of liquids etc. Good luck.

I have to do the liquid for 5 days only so I'm good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swankybangles 51 Posted October 24, 2013 I've been craving a bagel all day, definitely considered eating one but decided not to and to sip on some broth instead. I'm happy that I decided not to cheat on my diet, I would have felt incredibly guilty if I had! 1 Millyed reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
