I was doing so well in my pre op shake on diet even got through the headache and no hunger or craving any food stage... Then tonight we went out with the in laws and felt like sitting in thy restaurant i HAD to eat something an not just sit there with water, after a grilled chicken salad which I didn't even finish I felt so sick. Over that bump but worried about having to go through the whole carb calorie detox thing again! Ugh!

Pick up and start again. There's nothing you can do about the past. How long are you on pre-op?

My date is sept 11th as of this morning I had 5 more pounds to lose per the surgeon

when I was on my pre op liquid diet I cheated with a 6 dollar burger at carls jr.....It was so bad! but I got right back on the horse, and didnt fall off again....you will be fine!

When I was on my pre-op I had a "Prix Fix" five course meal....it was DELICIOUS!!!! But got right back on track and made it to my pre-surgery goal with no problem. Just say goodbye to "yesterday" and make better choices today. You'll be fine.

Don't beat yourself up, some doctors don't even require a pre-op special diet. My pre-op diet allows for one low-carb meal per day. Tonight I had a burger without the bun and grilled veggies.

We're all human and think- that was a pretty good cheat! Listen to all the other posters and remember you are trying, keep on trying
