Did you cheat on pre-op liquid diet

Yep, I cheated once. The day before the magnesium citrate flush, I went out and got Mexican food. I planned it, I did it, I don't regret it. I'm certain that I am not terminally unique. :thumbup: I didn't need to cheat with chocolate, because I got all my chocolate fixes with the stuff I could have on the pre band surgery diet!

I am just starting my pre-op diet, but I see that it seems as though everyone's doctors gave them different diet restrictions. I tried mixing the Protein power in crystal light and Soup, but it made the drink smell like rotten eggs and clump up, and it made the soup thicker than mashed potatoes and gritty. I'm not sure how I'm going to do this. I tried a dish of tuna and some fat-free refried Beans instead....the doctor said I could eat tuna and chicken, and stuff with high protein...is it more important to just drink liquids or to do more high protein? I can't stand milk products or yogurt and I'm scared that I'll run out of liquid options fast if I'm so limited.

My Surgeon requires a 2 week clear liquid/optifast diet. It was sooooooo hard being at the family BBQ yesterday and eating sugar free Jello. But, I did it. I've been wanting weight loss surgery for 10 years and I refuse to jeopardize my chances of FINALLY having it done next week!

I don't seem to have any restrictions on my Clear Liquids, but I was looking at the sodium content on my broth and holy COW! Is that gonna cause problems?!

My nutritionalist told me that my broth should have less than 150mg of sodium. Do you know how hard that is to find? There is a store called Trader Joes that I went to that had it, but that was the only place I could find it.

I'm 3 days away from surgery and I've been able to stick to my pre-op diet. :smile2:
