Do you have to follow it. And can you cheat? Are you serious? Yes go ahead and cheat they will open you up find your liver is too big and close you back up lol. It's happened to people. I followed the same plan was easier after first week. I assume you are in UK ? Never seen that plan in America.

No she wouldn't be the first. She also wouldn't be the first to wake up after being put under to find out they didn't have surgery. Good your surgery went well and yes we are all human but to be sure and also about being able to stick to something to prepare you for the liquid diet after it's best to not have plans of cheating in mind because alot of people can't get back on the wagon as you did

Follow your surgeon's diet. If I did my math right, that's about 60g of Protein, which is what my target is, too. And the carbs are limited, which is appropriate. My surgeon is having me drink Protein Shakes, which are expensive. Milk is much cheaper.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
