2) If we didn't all cheat, none of us would have needed surgery

I'm just wondering.... why 4 weeks? 1-2 weeks is the "norm".

I can say at 100% i didn't cheat... for either WLS (band or sleeve)

Don't beat yourself up over this. It will be more important not to cheat AFTER your surgery than before. You are NOT a failure--you are looking to change your life with WLS..that makes you a winner!

The only thing you should be disgusted with is choosing vegemite to cheat with! (just kidding, sorta...😁)

Vegemite an Australian speciality....something you have to try from a young age.....for those who have it later in life its pretty disgusting. I first tried it when I was 12, after we migrated to Australia. It wasn't pleasant at all. A bit like marmite or promite but seems to be a whole stronger in taste.

I'm thinking from the sound of it, I might be allergic to anything ending in "mite." :D

Why did you have both surgery's if you don't mind me asking.
Also my surgeon said I had to do it for 4 weeks [emoji2368]

I'm assuming vegemite is only something we have in Australia. I don't really know how to describe it. But it's bloody delicious lol
It's a spread you put on bread or crumpets. We also use it in Soups and stews.

Hard to resist the siren call of the vegemite sanga...

But just get back on the right path and quit beating yourself up about one sandwich ;)

4 weeks is a very long pre-surgery liquid diet phase, I would clarify with them if it is 4 weeks PRE surgery, it might be 4 weeks of liquids in total before and after surgery... just check.

      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.
