I'm on day 21 of my pre-op diet and I totally fell off the wagon. I ate a double whopper, fries and onion rings.

It's been so long since I've had anything besides liquids. I was so hungry.

Now I'm beyond stuffed and my tummy hurts. So disappointed in myself. :-(

I'm on day 9 of 28 and I do good all day. Then when the evening comes I'm starving and just want anything I can get my hands on. Today it was a McChicken. Yesterday it was a big bowl of chili.

How many days do you have left until your surgery?

Awwww don't beat yourself up too bad. I start my prr-op diet tomorrow and I'm praying to make the 13 days I'm on it. Jump back on the bandwagon and keep on trucking ???? Good Luck!!!!!

Fall back on. You slipped up. Pick yourself up and get back to work.

Don't feel bad. Guess what? You're human and you messed up. It's done. Just kick those negative feelings right out the door. Start fresh! Don't let 21 days of hard work be for nothing!

I'm on day 10 of 14 and I hit a good stride but now I feel like crap. I haven't cheated (which, if you know me, is INSANE, I have no will power) but I'm kinda scared about how I feel today. Anyone else have this problem?

@laurennella82 my surgery is next Tuesday

@@greatestnameever How are you feeling. Please explain.

It's only a set back, not a permanent situation. Keep taking small steps, they will all add up.

Here's to a new life. Keep moving forward, one step at a time. Make the right decisions, lean on the right people. Live for the right goal. I believe in you. Your time is now!

Weak, nauseated, a little loopy in the head.

Also @@Diane Grimm, you lost a step but you gained so many good steps on your pre-op diet! You are doing amazingly. One mistake isn't gonna destroy you. I'm incredibly proud of what you accomplished, and you should be too!

@ greatestnameever

Make sure you are getting enough Protein and fluids. If you are then I would call the doctor. You may need your diet upgraded a little bit. If you continue to feel this way, don't try to "tough" it out, this should be called in to your health care provider.

@@greatestnameever Thank you so much! Your encouraging words mean a lot!

I'm

My 3rd week pre op. I can have 3-5 optifast a day and 1-2 bars a day. Maybe try that so you don't feel hungry. They are called bariwise bars my doctors office gave them to me. I can have broth and jello. Sugar free of course. I got bored of broth plain chicken. So I got progreso soup and strained it. When I feel super hungry I have some hot soup and it helps settle that. Surgeries monday. I'm down 15 lbs from 3 weeks preop !

Today is day 7 for me on my pre-op diet. I'm down 10 pounds which is great but I do feel tired due to how strict it is. If need be I make sure to have some extra grilled chicken made. I figured a little extra Protein would help as long as its healthy.

If you slip up, just brush yourself off and keep on trucking.
