I cheated too. After 3 days, I had to eat something solid. I limited myself to a few ounces of lean meat. I stayed away from carbs of any kind (other than those in the Protein shakes) and was able to lose 10lbs in 7 days before surgery.

I cheated on day 3 and had blue cheese, then I cheated on day 5 and had 2 spoons fulls of refried Beans with cheese, I had a few Ritz crackers with a small dollop of Chili. (I know I'm an idiot!) oh and I had a small handful of pretzels. I also have not been pure ring my veggies. I just eat them raw and plain...

They way I see it... You should always try and stick to your doctors rules as much as possible.. But doctors are human and realize we are human too so I'm sure the occasional slip up is not uncommon for him/her to hear. Just as long as we get back on the horse and ride just as hard as we did before we fell off.

I cheated on my 10 day pre op diet. I was getting severe Migraines. I cheated 3 of the days. I wouldn't recommend it, but it happens. I still had a successful surgery and my surgeon never mentioned my liver size.

      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.
