AmyFromCincy 56 Posted March 14, 2015 Actually it wasnt pumpkin pie (but i WISH I had some pumpkin pie!). Yesterday, day 2 of pre op diet, i broke down and ate 2 slices off kraft cheese. It was wonderful and I dont really feel guilty about it lol. I know I shouldn't be flippant about it but i have 21 days of this to endure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Veronica Page 488 Posted March 14, 2015 Super hard to stick with it but def do the best you can. We have all been there. The most important thing I believe is to make sure the last week you don't break down and slip back into solids before surgery. You want to be as healthy as possible def helps with recovery! Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NaomiAus 104 Posted March 16, 2015 When it's time for my surgery, I too need to do three weeks, I'm not gonna judge, I too will most likely slip up, all you can do is pick it back up the second after you slip and resolve to do better. Slip ups are always going to happen - we are only human Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmyFromCincy 56 Posted March 16, 2015 Yeah and this is difficult though it feels like it has got a little easier. Emphasis on a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TealSister 296 Posted March 16, 2015 I just posted that I had a few little slip ups (small piece of cheese and a small crumb of bread). You have a much more supportive audience than I did! We can do this. No judgment from me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samuelsmom 670 Posted March 16, 2015 Hang in there! You can do this! Mine thankfully was only a week so not so bad. If you find that you are having a hard time handling it, you might want to reach out to your nutritionist to request the addition of some lean Protein.

moored 62 Posted March 17, 2015 That's what I've been craving like crazy. Just a nibble lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Time4Me2015 18 Posted March 17, 2015 I was not required to do a three week diet, only a two week one. I choose to start early so I could get into the hang of it. I have slipped up a couple times. Nothing crazy, just not on my plan. I do think it is important to follow what our Drs have given us to follow, but as mentioned before, we are human. mistakes will happen! Forgive and move on, try to do better. I will say I have lost about 12 pounds over the last couple weeks ???? since I am seeing the scale move it does make me more motivated!! Good luck!!!
