Hi everyone im new to the forum and i I'm having my gastric bypass surgery next week on the 14 of january and im super nervous i have been on this diet since the 29 of December and its been really hard for me i have wondered if anyone has ever cheated on the diet and does it really take two weeks to cleanse your liver

I did not cheat on my liquid diet and had a two week diet. The real issue is, if your liver is enlarged when your surgeon goes in, it could result in them having to execute an open surgery vs. a laparoscopic procedure. Obviously if that were to happen, your recovery which is already challenging for some would be more difficult.

I know the liquid diet is hard but it is setting you up for success. The best thing to do is take it one day at a time and before you know it your surgery day will be here.

I promise it is worth it.

If you are having a hard time you might call your surgeons office and they might have some suggestions for you. I know my surgeons office called me after week one to see how I was doing. When they did, I told them that I was so sick of the sweet taste of Protein Shakes that I was not even drinking them all in a day. They gave me some suggestions on what else I could try. For me I needed something more savory and canned broth was not doing it for me. They suggested I get some of mrs. Grass chicken noodle Soup and strain out the noodles. That broth saved me!

Good luck, you are so close! Don't give up now!

I also did not cheat on the liquid diet. It's a mental test and it is hard but think about the reasons you are going through this. You can make it. Give yourself the best chance at success. I'm 3 weeks Postop and am very proud of myself for sticking to the plan.

Good luck

Mike

Mybsurgery is on the 12 and I have not cheated with the diet. I am allowed one lean meal per day 4 oz of lean meat and some green vegetables and even with that it has been so hard, I felt sick the first three days. Nnausea, headaches and tremors. I plan on last two days just stick to pure Clear Liquids. You're almost there, Good Luck
