Slipped up on pre op diet



Recommended Posts

I started my 10 day pre op liquid diet on Monday the 13th, my sleeve surgery is the 23rd. Today was my birthday and I had such a craving for pizza that stupid me decided it was going to be a really long time before I was able to eat pizza hut pizza again so i went out with my kids and boyfriend for pizza. I had 2 pieces of pizza and 2 breadsticks plus about half glass of sprite. I went straight back to my liquids as soon as I got home and I plan to stick to my liquid diet 100% from now till surgery. Do you think everything will be ok or what do you think I should do

Your not the only one that has had those want this ,want that ! Just call your coordinator at the hospital and tell them what happened. You have to be honest with them. Your life may depend on this. They will tell u what to do. I had to call myself today. Over eating celery

1 slip up isn't going to affect your surgery if you kept doing it then yes, it could/would.. The pre-op liquid diet is to shrink your liver make surgery safer/easier.. Just get right back to following it and you'll be fine.. Happy Birthday!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
