Did everyone stick to the three week diet with no cheating? If i did eat something will it hurt me as long as i get back on track?

Hiya I'm on day 5 of 14 on pre op liquid diet and it is rough!!! I have not cheated and don't plan on it! I really look at this as a challenge and I have a how bad do I want this attitude! I don't want any complications and it's really training me mentally and physically and socially you find different things to do with yourself you learn your body such as when your hungry and when your just eating I have also come into understanding of eating for nourishment eating used to be my pleasure or a hobby now I just drink my disgusting Protein shakes for nutrients lol you will be fine tho

It really is a test, I almost broke 3 days ago but I got through it. I don't want any complications either so it is worth it to stick to the diet. Some surgeons will stop surgery if your liver is too large because it is not only in the way but it is also too easy to damage.

I think you should follow our surgeons directions as much as possible, but you didn't ruin anything if you messed up. Personally, I didn't have a specific pre-op diet. My surgeon asked me to lose 5-10lbs prior to surgery, but let me do it in my own way. I only had a one day liquid diet prior to the surgery. I have had no issues or complications since surgery nearly 3 weeks ago.

I'm on day four of seven preop diet. I get sleeved on the 30th. I see it as a test also. This definitely prepares you for sleeved life. Eat to live not live to eat. I can't wait till this is over. I keep imagining fitting into my pretty clothes again and that helps me to get through the day. We can do it! Good luck to all!
