You are probably on some sort of pre-operative diet, so don't do anything like a food funeral now. You don't want to have your surgery complicated by the fact that you consumed a bunch of fat right before - the pre-op diet is very important to shrink your liver so it is easy to move out of the way and perform the sleeve surgery.

You will eventually be able to eat things you ate before, you just might not want to, so don't get stuck on the idea that you can never have "X" again. Focus instead on how you are going to be knocking out those cravings once and for all and wanting to eat things that are good for you... because it really does change after surgery.

Good luck!!

What does your surgeon say? Do you have some kind of pre op diet?

What @@Babbs said. Go by what your surgeon says as everyone seems to be different here. Some are on a two week pre op diet and some only one.

Best of Luck and let us know how you are doing along the way. When is your surgery?

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
