Dee313 0 Posted March 5, 2019 Why would you want to cut it short and not do the full time in preparation?My surgery is the 13th of this month. They called me last week and schedule everything. So, I use 4 of the days to get my last junk food eating out the way.Sent from my LM-Q710(FGN) using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The purpose isn’t to get you on a fast track to lose weight. It’s to shrink the size of your liver for easier access to your stomach for your surgeon. Stick to the plan they’ve given you. You CAN do this!! Just throw all that junk food in the trash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sillysister74 1 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) My doc has us on a 9 day Liver shrink and full liquid the day before. I can understand why you spent a 4-day splurge. I am looking at the cottage cheese in my fridge, wishing that I was able to get that in. Edited March 22, 2019 by sillysister74 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mousecat88 2,281 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Hey - I know I caught a bunch of flak on here for having a "food funeral", but I have NO REGRETS. I was supposed to be on a 16 day diet with one meal a day and 3 shakes, and I definitely crushed fast food and Pasta, etc, on a few of those days as a final farewell. And I am glad I did. My liver was normal size, though, so I didn't need any "liver shrinking" to happen and no one was any the wiser I had *cheated*. I knew I was about to make a dedication to never have those items again in my entire life (something I will absolutely stick to), so I wasn't about to let my last chance to pass me by.
