wlk14racing 0 Posted May 18, 2015 I go in this Thursday 5/21 for my gastric bypass, and I have had a few slip up on this liquid diet, happen to anyone else and if so how did it go for the surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdaughe5 6 Posted May 19, 2015 Well I can't relate to the pre-op diet. My surgeon does not require the liquid pre-op. But there will be slip ups from time to time. You are still learning. The important thing is that you acknowledge the slip up and own it. Do better.. This is not a mistake. It's a first step to a healthier life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DogLover5 2 Posted May 20, 2015 OK, I have to admit that I am completely ignorant about online forums. I've been reading, learning and enjoying the process without joining in. Now that all of us June surgeries are speaking up I want to buddy up, too! I have my username and password, but don't know anything else. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Barblhw 0 Posted May 23, 2015 My gastric bypass surgery is on June 11. Like you I'm anxious about the surgery but mostly looking forward to all the benefits I will receive from losing weight and being healthier! I would also like a bariatric pal buddy to compare our journeys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laguerr13 993 Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) Your post was too vague so it's kind of a loaded gun, it could lead to people reacting negatively to other's answers, but with all due respect if you meant that you went off your recommended diet "a few times" then I would say you need to take a step back and re-assess your psyche, this is not a quick fix for many of us, I is very hard work that requires commitment FOR THE RESTOF YOUR LIFE!!! Part of this is your psych evaluation, but a lot of people on here know what to say, I think you should go through with this, but not unless your willing to commit and make the changes necessary to reach your goals, I am passionate about this since my health was deteriorating quickly and I am not ready to quit my wife and kids!!! If you want a pal to help you when you get discourage inbox me I'll give you my Facebook and phone, I want to pay it forward, and I want others to succeed!
