We all miss food, I think. I'm sorry you have not been able to follow your pre op diet. I know it's hard. I fell off the wagon a time or two also. I'm 6 days post op. I know if I eat now, I will not feel well. Still on liquids, want real food, but we all have o do what is best for us. You've made a decision to get the sleeve for you and your health. You have to get your head in the game. You can do it! You deserve it. In the long term, you will feel so much better. I've lost 16 pounds since I started pre op up until today. I have said in many times when yes would have been easier. I hope you are able to make good decisions today!

Hi Sleevinit

I know what you mean-I keep thinking the same thing Thanksgiving time to pig out-then I think about my thin friends and family members at Thanksgiving dinner and how they don't seem fixated on overeating. When I think about it I remember they eat sensibly and then busy themselves with conversation, serving others, and cleaning up. I'm pre-op too but I think I'm going to try and think (eat) like a thin person. After all, this time next year I plan to be one. :-)

I am going to be real w you girl eat , eat until you are done I did it before my preop diet anything I new I would miss I ate. I was sleeved 11/22 I have lost 20lbs 7 before being sleeved. We are here because we love food and that pre op post op diet is not easy a am at the 1st stage still and I want real food but I know I can't. Hardest thang by far having too cook pecan pie collard greens baked Mac & cheese and yams for my family today and I can't have a bit. It's all a mental game for me I love good foods but I know too win in this game I half too stop and learn to love small healthy meals

Good luck
