I am so mad/sad

I cant believe I cheated so bad tonight for dinner. My surgery is Monday. I have lost 9 lbs during this pre-op period. I will do liquids on Saturday and Sunday. How could I be so stupid??? Has this happened to anyone else?

It happens to almost everyone, so don't kick your self too much. Just stop cheating and get pack on plan!

I've done it too. If we were really good at sticking to diets, we would not be here. Don't be hard on yourself. Just pick up the pieces and be really diligent about what goes in your mouth today and tomorrow.

Hugs!

My surgery is also on Monday ....I cheated on Wed. I broke down and ate things I shouldn't have. It wasn't much...but I couldn't help it. I think as long as you "do good" this weekend, that is o.k. I am so temped to eat... I've lost about 12 lbs on my pre-op liquid diet. Monday will be here before we know it. I go in for 7:15 am!!!

sammey1 You are not alone, I had my surgery on 12/31 and did my

pre-op diet during Christmas holiday and that was so hard! My surgeon said I could have one meal on Christmas Day, but then back to liquids until surgery. I lost 16 pounds, but my liver was still fatty. I was so upset because I worked so hard on shrinking it. So hang in there it will be ok. Best wishes with your upcoming surgery.

I was banded on 3/12 and I've eaten regular foods already. So don't worry your not alone. I didn't vomit didn't have a problem. I'm back on liquids and creamed Soups and yogurt. I have lost some but not as much as I am sure I would if I was restricted. Remember we're not rstricted yet so not much has changed...we're healing. Some docs are more crazy about the diets at the beginning than others. We have our minds to change...you're fine...we'll all do it...it a process

      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.
