I'm on day 3 of my 14 day pre op diet. Surgery is on the 25th of August. I just had a medium meat lovers pizza all to myself. Should I tell my surgeon? I'm scared he will cancel the operation because I broke my pre op diet :( I was going good till now.

No need to tell him, its early you have time to get back on track, lose 10 lbs in the remaining 11 days everyone wins. Len

What happens if people just choose not to follow the pre-op diet?

I'm not exactly sure what happens if you don't follow pre-op but from what I've read in these posts, it's probably better that you do. I know that following the pre-op diet can help reduce the fat around your liver and that can help during surgery. I'm sure it's dreadful but try to be positive about it. Two weeks of following the pre-op will totally be worth it in the end. If you have a bump in the road, start over the next day. You can do it!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
