Ok, I cheated. I am having surgery March 13 and I had a bean burrito today. I feel awful. I've lost 10 pounds and was so close. Do you think this will stop my liver from shrinking?

Sorry but you will be cheating a lot more than this. At some point you will STOP a losing weight so do your best NOW. Gaining 30 lbs is IMPOSSIBLE to get off.

No it won't. Keep your eyes on the prize. So you slipped, acknowledge it, and continue on the path to a healthier you. You'll be fine.

It won't but I agree with the post above you will find yourself cheating and be sure to hold yourself accountable that's what I do when I see the scale move up I cut back and go back to basics

The pre-op diet really prepares you for what's next to come after surgery. March 13th is two days away. Make sure you stick to your liquid diet. Some doctors open up their patients just to close them up again because they couldn't operate on them because of food in stomach, etc... you don't want to be disappointed.


Height: 5'0"
Weight for WLS consultation: 216 lbs.
Surgery date: 2/13/17
Goal: -71 lbs for healthy BMI (about 145 lbs).
Current weight: 185.2
My profile picture is not me. It's my "FITspiration" body.

I would definitely tell your surgeon what you have done. He/she needs to know.

No, it shouldnt. My surgery is scheduled gor 3/31 and my surgeon does not habe any of his patients do a pre op diet for weeks. Our pre op diet is the day before surgery just Clear Liquids. He said he can get past our liver no matter how big it is and he doesnt think its right having us stressed out about it. Dont worry about it, but just remember that slipping up after surgery is not going to be an option. Your stomach is very raw and needsvto heal properly and a bean burrito will not help that :)
Move on, dont stress, and keep looking forward, not backward.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
