How bad is it that I cheated on liquid pre op diet?



Recommended Posts

I am on day 6 of a 10 day pre op liquid diet. Today I had to travel and forgot to carry my Protein Powder for lunch and dinner with me. I ended up having about 3-4oz of lean chicken breast with about a cup of copped veggies for dinner. I also had about a cup of wonton Soup broth only. How much damage did I do in the grand scheme of shrinking my liver?

I don’t think it will hurt you. For you to cheat, you picked a good food choice to cheat with. Not like you ate some cake with ice cream. Just stay on your diet the next four days

I am 9 days post op and when I was doing my diet prior to surgery my program had me on Protein Shakes and 1 lean meal. You chose a lean meal so you will be fine. Good luck with your surgery.

Thanks Bryn910. I plan on being on track until my surgery on Friday. Just feel awful that I had solid food.

Many people are allowed to eat one daily meal of low carb veggies and lean Protein on their pre-op diets.

You picked smart cheats. I don't think you did any damage to your liver-shrink.

I think it'll be ok. Best wishes on your surgery!

I am not yet on the sacred pre-diet but I currently,replace my lunch with a Protein Shake, because,most of the time I'm either busy or disinclined to cook them Before I would eat a bolonga on white bread, tuna salad on whole wheat or a Greek yogurt with fruit.
Now to your question, I think it will be okay. Many diets,let you have a lean,protein with or without a vegetable for a meal. Just get on back to the liquids like Doctor wanted. As long as it's a few days before it should clear out of your body and,it will be our little secret!👉😁👈

      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.
