Don't beat yourself up. A lot of us have messed up like that. I myself did the same as you today...feeling pretty crappy about it but what matters is doing right from here on out. Hugs, holly

You're fine. Just don't let that one sandwich turn into multiple sandwiches because you're beating yourself up.

Go out and take a walk. Get your mind off of what you did. Think about your future. Think about how important this is to you.

This part of your process will be over soon.

Hang in there.

Breathe in and out and remember this is temporary. You've got this!

Your liver will be fine from one sandwhich.

Honestly our surgeons know we are addicted to food. I think they make the diet extra strict and long because they know we are going to slip up a little.

You are doing great. It's human nature to want to eat real food, have something to chew, and drinking Protein shakes for so long is against our very DNA.

It's so necessary to make surgery safer, but don't beat yourself up. Just stay with it and it will be over soon.

I ate a really dark chocolate bar during my pre-op diet. I was fine.

Your liver will be fine and you are certainly not the only one who had some bonus food on the pre op diet. Just keep on going and you can do it! Good luck!

Can I tell you that my surgeon allowed normal diet until the day before surgery. So you will be fine. I ate everything I normally did until the morning before when I was able to have a light breakfast and liquids only after. :)

I'm also on a full liquid diet and today was my 5th day. For me it helps that I can have sf Popsicles and sf jello. My dietician also said that I can have 1 dill pickle spear a day. You can also freeze your protein shakes and have like an icee. Hope this helps! I had a pickle spear today and that was the best pickle spear I have ever had. LOL. Don't feel bad, you'll be fine!

hang in there, i was one that had a few small cheats during my pre op and i did good. surgery was great. post op was great. now i'm 6 wks out and on a 'regular' diet. i agree with don't beat yourself up. drink LOTS of Water and move around. try to occupy your time which will distract you from wanting to eat.

by day 4-5 of my pre op my physical hunger was GONE and it was way easier. good luck!
