@@garbekr0118 Ok do me a favor and write down at least 4 reasons you want the surgery ..like I will be healthy .or I will look great in normal size clothes etc ..Look at these at least 3 times a day and even when you feel like you need to cheat .. You will have the will power to do this ..Heck stick on on the fridge or pantry door..

Thanks everyone, I have not had a "meal" at all, but I have just cheated in general, with bites of stuff here and there. Some days worse than others. I think the therapist is something I am definitely going to pursue once I speak to my dr tomorrow whether we decide to go forward or not. It certainly won't hurt me to have counseling either way. I make no excuses for myself, and fully recognize that I may not be ready. I just feel like cr@%, because I really thought I was. This 2 week diet was much worse than I thought it would be.

I think that I have to admit to myself at this point that I am not ready for this surgery. I have cheated every single day of this diet. I have lost 13 pounds in 9 days, and while that is great, I have still cheated all along and need to face that fact. I am supposed to have my surgery on August 3, and see my doctor tomorrow. I don't know how I would survive post op and beyond if I couldn't even do this. I am so sad and disappointed in myself.

Healing thoughts and wonderful wishes for a healthy future being sent your way!

I am on day 4 of liquid diet, and am miserable .

This is really difficult for me. Today my boss bought pizza for our entire office, and it took everything I had not to grab a slice.

I'm trying so hard, but I don't know how I will do it another 10 days, let alone after surgery.

I am totally new here and started my 2 week pre-op diet today. My sleeve is on August 3. I am a nervous wreck, but there is a little part of me that is excited. Would love to talk to people in the same spot as me!
