So I decided to take some advice I found on this forum and roast me a couple of chickens so I can save the broth and freeze it for some post op meals. Great idea! Except I would like to ammend that advice....HAVE SOMEONE ELSE COOK FOR YOU IN THEIR HOUSE! OMG....it smelled soooooo freakin' good. I have done pretty well on my pre-op diet with the two shakes a day and one meal with hardly any snacking but I am afraid I ate a little bit of the chicken and some skin(my favorite part). I didn't go overboard and it is still protein but the smells are a big problem.

My surgery is Friday. I have lost 20 lbs in about a month...half of which I lost in the last two weeks. Do ya'll think I screwed this up? I am a little freaked right now.......

i bet you'll be fine chicken is good for you. skin not so much but i know how you feel! I'm sure you didn't get enough to all of a sudden make your liver all fat again. right?

One little screw-up isn't going to do anything as long as you keep it at that and don't let it derail your efforts. Just don't do it again. Use it as a learning experience to learn about what triggers your eating behavior. That's my two cents...

D.

I'm sure ur okay. I started my Pre-op today and I don't have the whole protein shake rule. I can eat meat, veggies, and fruit.
