So I start my 10 day preop liquid diet Sept 6th...this coming Sunday....

I heard through the grapevine that my friends are throwing me a one last time drink...eat....bbq....free for all party for me.... Would it be terribly horrible if I induldge in a bunch of no no's a day before my liquid diet?

I know that Im not saying goodbye to my favorite foods forever....and I know that I will once again be able to enjoy those things that I love only in smaller portions at some point down the line.....but it still something I dont want to regret of feel guilty for doing....

Im getting invited to lunch almost every day this week lol.... everyone wants to like share that last meal with me... lol I dunno I want to enjoy myself... I just dont want to feel guilty doing it...:confused1:

I didn't have to do a liquid diet, but I had to do the high Protein, low carb thing for 7 days pre-op.

I had one last "hoorah" of all my favorites before surgery, and didn't feel guilty about it one bit. Most of my choices are not sleeve friendly, such as Pasta, mongolian noodles and tortillas, southern country cooking. I'm glad I did it.

I ate at all my favorite restaurants before surgery. It was my final farewell to things that are not good choices for me now. I say go for it!!! I look back and think how could I eat so much? I am 2 weeks post-op and I have no regrets about eating before surgery. I just have to make better choices now, I am down 25 pounds as of today and walking farther than I ever thought I could! So happy I had the surgery!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
