hi...i am sooo excited for my upcoming surgery...but tonight i think i might have screwed it all up.. for 8 days now i have been on the liquid diet...pre surgery...and have followed my dr's directions exactly as given....until today, when after a very stressful day, without thinking twice, i scarfed down a whole hamburger and a few fries...after EIGHT DAYS of liquids, and six more to go...and i know the reason for the pre diet is to shrink the liver...thats how i am....i am such an emotional eater...has anyone else done this...is my surgeon gonna shut me back up on monday and tell me that my liver is gy normous and he cant get around it,....i know i can do this six more days...i have already made it thru 8....i cant even explain or excuse what happened today......

Just get back on board and continue your liquids for the next 6 days---you cannot undo the past, but you can control what you do from here on out. Many of us fell off the wagon---heck, some of us jumped!!! One meal should not affect your liver to a point of cancelling surgery.

Welcome to LBT by the way, and congrats on your upcoming surgery! I found it to be an easy surgery---I hope you do as well!!!
