    mjackson, That's stinking thinking! You made a small mistake. Grab those bootstraps, get back on track and follow through on your pre-op diet!

Once you're sleeved and the pounds start melting off, this stage will be a vague memory, but the improvement in your health and your body image will be well worth this tiny struggle now.
