Yup! The first week I allowed myself 1 or 2 boiled egg whites (pure Protein, minimal carbs) and raw veggies (celery and cucumber) (again, little to no carbs). I tried to cheat in a way that wouldn't Hinder my weight loss pre-op and the second week I was by the book. The first 4-5 days were the absolute worst, after that I felt more in control and slightly less miserable. Do your best to do your best! And try not to worry to much, you'll get through it. If you do have a bad day, pull yourself up, dust yourself off and start fresh the next day!

I have cheated twice once on the third day and once today. I think I am over it though and its not going to happen again. My surgery is June 26th I still have what ten days to go. I'm going to exercise and stick to my liquids. I need this surgery but it has been one of the hardest things ever to do!...

Has anyone ever cheated on their pre op diet and what did you eat??

I cheated 1x but I tried to justify it but still was guilty and didn't do it anymore. I had chicken broth with saltines crushed up in it. I thought...hmmm still liquid right? Pre op is rough no lie..at least the liquids post op u aren't starving for food like pre op

Post-op is SO much easier....there's no comparison. Not hard to not eat when you don't feel like youre starving to death! It does get boring but still was nothing compared to pre-op hell, at łeast for me :)

I am having my surgery Wednesday June 26 and my doctor did not put me on a pre op diet only rules diet rules are two days before surgery. Everywhere that I read people are on a pre op diet anywhere from 1-3 weeks and now I am wandering if this will affect my surgery. I guess we will see ..

My doc only wanted the two days before surgery too. You'll do great

This is my first day on my two week pre-op diet and all I can think about is eating. I'm thinking about just going to bed! Hope I get this under control soon.

It does get better, I'm on day 6 and its alittle better. Not great but better! Can't believe it's 4 more weeks.

I cheated. I had a food funeral!! I was 248 on my first doctor visit and 2 months later on DOS I was 252. But now I'm 220. It's so much easier post surgery.

Wait do you mean you have four more weeks on a liquid diet? I'm not sure I could do it. I only have a two week liquid diet and today has been one of the linear days ever!
