Don't beat yourself up. A lot of us have messed up like that. I myself did the same as you today...feeling pretty crappy about it but what matters is doing right from here on out. Hugs, holly

You're fine. Just don't let that one sandwich turn into multiple sandwiches because you're beating yourself up.

Go out and take a walk. Get your mind off of what you did. Think about your future. Think about how important this is to you.

This part of your process will be over soon.

Hang in there.

Your liver will be fine from one sandwhich.

Honestly our surgeons know we are addicted to food. I think they make the diet extra strict and long because they know we are going to slip up a little.

You are doing great. It's human nature to want to eat real food, have something to chew, and drinking Protein shakes for so long is against our very DNA.

It's so necessary to make surgery safer, but don't beat yourself up. Just stay with it and it will be over soon.

I ate a really dark chocolate bar during my pre-op diet. I was fine.

Your liver will be fine and you are certainly not the only one who had some bonus food on the pre op diet. Just keep on going and you can do it! Good luck!

Can I tell you that my surgeon allowed normal diet until the day before surgery. So you will be fine. I ate everything I normally did until the morning before when I was able to have a light Breakfast and liquids only after. :)

I'm also on a full liquid diet and today was my 5th day. For me it helps that I can have sf Popsicles and sf Jello. My dietician also said that I can have 1 dill pickle spear a day. You can also freeze your Protein Shakes and have like an icee. Hope this helps! I had a pickle spear today and that was the best pickle spear I have ever had. LOL. Don't feel bad, you'll be fine!

hang in there, i was one that had a few small cheats during my pre op and i did good. surgery was great. post op was great. now i'm 6 wks out and on a 'regular' diet. i agree with don't beat yourself up. drink LOTS of Water and move around. try to occupy your time which will distract you from wanting to eat.

by day 4-5 of my pre op my physical hunger was GONE and it was way easier. good luck!

      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.
