So, yesterday on my first day of the live reduction diet, I have a handful of home cooked peanuts and a spoon full of an omelette. Did I mess up?

you asked, did you mess up? Unless eggs and peanuts are on your pre-op diet, then yes, you messed up. Is it likely to derail your surgery? I really doubt it. The liver reduction diet is meant to be low carb, low sugar, and high Protein, and your choices fall in those ranges. If I were you I would focus on being more compliant going forward -- if nothing else this is good practice for being compliant post-op -- but not beat yourself up about a few peanuts and bites of eggs. They aren't going to harm your prospects for surgery or hurt you (repeated self-sabotaging might so I am not suggesting you keep doing it!). Overall it sounds like you are doing well and a minor slip like this is something to keep an eye on, to make sure it doesn't keep happening, but it isn't something to get down on yourself about. Good luck!

@@Latoya1214 I am not sure -- we didn't have a diet just like yours at the practice I used. I would call up your surgeon's office and check to be sure.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
