My surgery date is aug 6 and I'm on a 2 week diet I did cheat a little but I used a latex to try to clean out! So not long to go. I hope I be fine and clear and he don't reschd me! Have anyone cheated on their 2 weeks?

I am 6 weeks post-op and I honestly can't remember what food I ate to cheat but I do remember cheating one or two meals. When I had my surgery though my surgeon said my liver looked great and that he could really tell that I stayed on my pre-op diet.

Thank u for feed back ! I'm going in aug 6 and working out and follow my diet that was given from this day until then ! I did cheat with sushi and lol a cheese burger !!!! Last week but passed up sooooo much more ! But I'm still working out in the progress ! I hope I be good thou so thank u very much

I didn't have a pre-op major diet to follow. They only thing I had to really do was just drink the clear liquids the day before my surgery. I went out to eat with friends I haven't seen in a year the day before my liquid day and had absolutely no problems.

Wow!! That's amazing I wonder why every doctor is so different ?? Some on clear only for two weeks ! I'm clear but with else one meal for dinner ! It's so different ! But lucky u ! So my cheating should be okay for what I did eat !

I cheated everyday on my preop diet. The doctor was ready to do my surgery so I only had 5 clear liguid days. They tell you that stuff about shrinking the liver but there is no way you can shrink the liver in just 5 days. I am one week post op and doing great.

My was like 5 days only because first on july 8th surgery was going to be July 26th on July 9 we moved it for July 19 and on July 10 was moved to July 16th. I did it the best that I could, ate some cheese crackers the night before, everything went well.

Yeah my diet is two full weeks ! He seems like a strict doctor but thanks I will keep posted !

My surgery is next Monday and I'm on the liquid diet right now. I haven't cheated yet but seriously considering it. Someone mentioned that if you do cheat, try to make sure it is something with little to no carbs. The shrinking of the liver happens when you go into ketosis from not eating carbs- so cheat with low carb foods to keep that going. Of course, most people are going to want carbs if they are going to cheat.. I'm just craving something that is not liquid...

I also cheated in my 2 week liquid diet. The nut told me I could eat tuna or an egg or chicken but just a little instead of just a shake. I did break down a few times and ate bad things but for 3 days before surgery I only drank shakes. I was afraid they would find actual food in there so I was really good for 3 days. I lost 15 pounds in those 2 weeks so I did fine.

Michelle, I think I'm having my surgery (next week) at the same place you did. I see your surgeon was Dr. Hoehn. Mine is Dr. Hamilton at KC Bariatric.

Yes that's where I had surgery. I had a great experience! I'm having my one year check up there in about 3 weeks plus I'm meeting with dr hoehn about him doing my tummy tuck! So excited!

I wont lie. I did but i didnt. I ate grilled chicken subs from subway and stayed under 1500 cals a day for the last five days then did liquids the day before surgery with the miralax that the doc ordered. I lost 7lbs prior to surgery.

I did Hun but its all about learning self control. You will get there chin up ????

I'm 1 week post op and I cheated with turkey n Arizona ice tea n I'm down 18lbs. Good luck

As I have said many times before, stick to the plan your surgeon gave. I did not cheat on my pre or post-op diet. I am 5 months and 85lbs down and still haven't cheated. The diet is to help you prepare for surgery and your new lifestyle post-op. it is not meant to be to torturous. Sure the popular belief is that you cheat today and tomorrow is a new day, but for some it becomes once a cheater always a cheater.

After surgery, you'll need to heal and being on a all liquid diets has a purpose. Anyway, I've had my say and now I am finished. It is up to you to follow the instructions or give into temptation. That is not to say you won't ever have a bite or two of something unhealthy or indulgent, but don't make it a hobby. I've taken this surgery seriously because this as a last ditch effort to keep of weight and I won't fail.

Good luck whatever path you take on your journey.
