My surgery is less than two weeks actually, its oct 9 and so far I have stuck to what is on the list my Dr gave me.. What would happen if I indulged a little like ate chicken for a dinner and had a few drinks one night? Has anyone done this?

Not sure about the drinks, but you can indulge a bit of food as long as the rest of the time you stick with it...make sure to exercise off anything you do eat, though.

I wouldn't do the drinks. My cheat on my 3 week pre-op mushy diet was some grilled chicken.

I didn't cheat but I know a couple of people who did and they had one hell of a time after surgery with extreme gas pains for days after surgery. I saw one of them and personally I would not recommend it.

I would stay away from the drinks since alcohol affects the liver and the whole reason behind the liquid diet is to shrink your liver for a safer surgery.

I was unable to do all liquid diet and my NUT let me have chicken grilled NOT FRIED,or fish.... and what everyone else said No alcohol due to the liver issues

Alrighty thank you all very much... Its not a have to just going out of town for a fun weekend and just wanted to see what my boundries are, Mabey just a small piece of fish or chicken and veggies sounds good..

Indulge?? Did you know that people have been shot for less

but......many people, yes me, go out on "food funerals" - there last big meal

this will be your last big meal, buttttt - after WLS and a period of time, you will be able to eat your normal stuff, in teeny bits, moderation, you know that song

sounds like the "big" indulge you would like to have - chicken, something like that, is no big deal - have a good time, have a drink on me - H20 of course

in my case i had a "few" last meals.

i survived to talk about it

9 1/2 months Post WLS - i am down 90 lbs - 10 til goal

have a nice week-end

best of luck on WLS

speedy recovery

My 2week diet was really 6days I drank beer and bbqed for the 4of July ate whatever I wanted at first then went on no carbs and all liquid.

My dr said liver was small and told me good job on my preop. My wife was shocked
