I did it too ...it's a struggle. I did fine for surgery. I had lost 30 lbs prior to surgery so my liver had shrunk. Plus I spoke with dietician bc I wasn't doing the Optifast diet, I did an alternate. They ended up letting me actually eat small amounts lean meats salad etc. Good luck this is one of the toughest aspects of this surgery adventure. Get back on track :)

Its ok. Just dont tell your doctor because some drs have cancelled surgery because of that. I know i slipped up 2x myself... But my doctor said it will happen..just try to be strong. Actually some doctors dont require a preop diet....so technically you're doing ok

I started my 10 day pre op liquid diet on Monday the 13th, my sleeve surgery is the 23rd. Today was my birthday and I had such a craving for pizza that stupid me decided it was going to be a really long time before I was able to eat pizza hut pizza again so i went out with my kids and boyfriend for pizza. I had 2 pieces of pizza and 2 breadsticks plus about half glass of sprite. I went straight back to my liquids as soon as I got home and I plan to stick to my liquid diet 100% from now till surgery. Do you think everything will be ok or what do you think I should do





You will be fine hun . No more cheating though. Xxxxxxx

For all those still preop...

Please look at the calendar well ahead of starting the preop diet. If you see a special day falling during the diet phase, please Celebrate early!

Yes, no sense crying over spilled milk, but let's practice putting the lid on the container ;)

Remember, today was tomorrow and will be yesterday. Therefore, you can control yesterday by what you do today. (But only starting today).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
