Before surgery I quick eating or drinking sugar products. I did eat low diet around 900 calories at day. But i eat normally just small portions trying to abjust myself to eating small. Two days before surgery I did liquids only. In one month before surgery I drop 12 pounds. Now being almost a week after surgery I have not measure myself I want to wait until my dr appointment. So honestly I try my best to follow dr advice 100% , but I am not perfect and I know I did eat things I should have eat before surgery. But now after surgery I dont regret have being a my favorite restaurant two weeks pre op and eating my favorite dish with my family. Just to let you know yesterday for the first time I went out with my mom and daughter to eat. I order a clear liquid Soup and with only eight sips I was full thats when I realize that this is going to work for me.

I am starving I am so hungry. Started full liquid diet yesterday, but is so hard I see my mom eating like crazy and I think thats making me hungry, but I just dont want to bother her since she came from miami to take care of my daughter and me during the surgery time.

You are NOT a failure. I think you need to keep your dr appt. Talk to your dr/nut about what is going on. Go back to the basics - up your Protein, get your Water in, walk (or whatever you do for exercise), take your vitamins/meds, write down every bite you take, weigh only once a week...you can do this! We all have those moments when we feel like we are failing, not doing like we should, etc etc...fall down seven times, get up eight, as the saying goes.
Best of luck to you! Take care!

Hi all. I just received my 6 month post-op bloodwork results. My hemoglobin A1C is down from 8 pre-op to 5.6!!! I was in disbelief when the doctor told me. I was expecting it to be good, maybe in the 6's but was just floored to hear 5.6. I was down to just Metformin since the surgery and he took me off that now too. He said my diabetes has fully reversed itself and that I no longer have to classify myself as a diabetic.
I am so thrilled with this, I just had to share my good news.

The day after surgery is 1 day post op.

Your cute! But I seriously doubt your going to get many people here giving you suggestions on foods to cheat with:p
You've made it this far keep up the good work,
This isn't like a diet just to lose weight, this is part of your pre op to get your body ready for surgery.
I promise you will be able to eat again soon

After one deny I finally got approve thanks god surgery may 16
