Wow, so I made it through the 1 week pre-op diet, and it was hard, but I did well. Now, I'm day 4 after the sleeve and really want to eat something besides clear liquids. Ok, I know I've come this far, don't risk it, etc. But really is everyone being perfect or will some milk really harm me?

Try some crushed ice or sugar-free Popsicles if you want something to chew.

Hang in there. It's not forever. You can do this!
