I cheated - now what?

[Tomo 1,196]

I’m having bypass a week from Monday 19th am on LRD I have cheated a couple of times and feel awful about it. Hope it doesn’t jeopardize my surgery. Help

I would tell your surgeon about it. I have heard of cases that patients refuse to follow pre-op diet, and they open them up and either the liver hasn't shrunk enough or there is food in their system and then the surgeon has to just close them back up.

I doubt it. Do your best. This will change after surgery as the amount you can take in goes WAY down and your cravings will likely disappear.

Thanks so much I don’t think I’ve done real damage just a couple of Snacks . I also drink vinegar which is supposed to help

I’m 8 days out. I had 3 ounces of puréed steamed cauliflower. Did I overdo it

Is 3oz of pureed steamed cauliflower within your plan? Did you make yourself sick or uncomfortable?

Your answers determine your answer.

My plan said 3oz Protein, 1oz veggies, not that I could manage it that early. There were days when 1oz of anything was overdoing it, others when 4oz wasn't.

Good luck,
