Bad habits die hard. Don't worry about it. We are all experiencing moments where we believe we can go back to our previous lives and eat what we used to... But this is not true anymore. The only thing you will achieve is to hurt yourself as your sleeve won't react well to fat and heavy food. This is a learning curve. I experienced it recently. You need to listen to the signals your body sends to not repeat the same mistakes. You will be fine. Go back to the basics: fluids, Proteins, exercise. Take care.

I would call your dietician and phych right away...Cheating on your post-op diet can cause diarrhea, dehydration, Constipation, bowel obstruction, or a very serious gastric leak. Their is a reason they put you on it...I even thought of cheating but with Peanut Butter or oatmeal not fries and a pizza...however the risk was not worth it to me. I did this for my health and family...

Please PLEASE seek help...you come this far so get help.

I was told by my surgeon to adhere strictly to post op diet. If your staples come out you could possibly die from it. Please don't risk it. It's hard. I don't even know if I'll manage the pre op diet my email is azgirl0073@gmail.com msg me any time

I have always been the type of person that I did and ate whatever I wanted UNLESS a doctor told me to do something specific. I guess it's because I have a huge fear of damaging myself when a professional tells me to do it different. So I stuck to my diet, but there were stages of the early diet I didn't like (IE. pureed foods) so for the first month I found thing I liked in the other earlier parts of the diet and stuck with them through the purred stage. The reason I'm telling this is because I totally understand your desire to eat something else but I just refused to hurt my sleeve and just ate what I liked so far! Now it's been 3 1/2 month since my surgery and the desire to cheat has pretty much gone away I just stick to the same philosophy I eat thing I like but are good for me and so far so good! Good luck with your journey!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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