I feel so guilty!!! Today I was doing enchiladas of carne asada to my family and after 4 days of liquids omg!! I though well just a little bit and I ate a whole enchilada of corn tortilla!!!! Will this affect my results?? My surgery is on the 30th!!!

This is too hard for me specially cuz we are an Hispanic family and our food is so rich!!

It should not but you want to limit the cheats as much as possible for your benefit. I completely understand I am also Hispanic and love food! Just forgive yourself and go on, you can do it!

Meh. Some doctors don't force you to do a pre-op diet at all (mine didn't) so I wouldn't stress. I'd try to pick up the pieces and get back on your doc's plan tomorrow, though.

I would have a totally different tone if you had just cheated on your POST op diet because healing after surgery is no joke and it's very important to keep to the liquids until you're cleared to start regular food.

And as a sad side note, I would enjoy those tortillas now...if you're unlucky like me they won't go down the same after surgery. I make my own and can't even eat half of one anymore. :(

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
