Help I'm on day 9 my surgery is on 9/22 and I have cheated! I don't know what to do, will the dr cancel my surgery. I have been good for the first 3 days then cheated for 3 days now I'm so scared. I want to stick with the liquid diet for the next days until surgery but now I'm scared if I don't say anything.

9/15. I'm definitely in the regret phase, but feel better coming on here to know I'm not crazy haha.

I'm sure it will get easier with time. I have surgery in two days. I am scared and nervous. I have anxiety on a daily basis. My biggest thing is learning what to eat and what not to eat. I am still a little confused. I thought I knew until I started my pre op diet, but I don't. So that's what the next two days are going to consist of.

I really hope it gets better for you! Have you talked to your doctor?

Thanks. I have - my surgeon seems to be really, really strict. My liquid phase is 10 days, others seem to be 5 or 7. He was also strict about meds in the hospital. (Lack of, that is). I asked for applesauce to be permitted to help swallow meds - waiting to hear, but also thinking a half cup of SF applesauce can't cause harm?

Good luck with your surgery - from what I can tell it's the 15 pills a day I take causing most of my issues so I'm sure you'll be great!

Oh goodness. Yeah I only take 3 pills a day. So hopefully it will be okay.

I am ready to get it over with, and ready to get into the recovery stages. Like right now, I feel like I could eat a mountain of something.... I don't want to be this hungry anymore. I hate it. I also have a 4 year old. So when we are eating and he wants something that I can't have. I can't tell him no because I can't have it. So that's making it pretty hard as well... but I will just have to learn to live with it.

I remember I had made Pasta well into half of my daughters liquid pre-op diet. She was so mad, and later I caught her chewing a mouthful of pasta then spitting it out. Lol guilt. It's going to be hard but not impossible. When I had my pro and post op liquid stage, I'd make food, serve it to my kids then go outside with a shake or Popsicle. Sometimes I'd take a walk and ask the kids to help and put the left overs away before my walk was over. It helped

It'll get easier for sure, hunger wise. Fairly non existent.

You will do great! Have faith in a speedy recovery

How did it go??
