No Negative Comments! Did anyone cheat during Pre op



Recommended Posts

I would be more concerned about what the "cheating" means to your commitment to doing what you need to do. And post-op, following the doctor's orders regarding food and drink is more than just about losing weight -- it is about life and death.

Please be honest and no negative comments.
DID anyone cheat during their pre op liquid diet ?


What is it you are really asking here? Because you know the answer to the question you asked is yes, of course someone has cheated on their pre op diet.

Are you asking for a show of hands for solidarity? Are you asking what the ramifications were for those who did? Are you asking for people who did and still succeeded to share so you can feel confident in case you do the same? Did you go off the wagon and scare yourself and want reassurance?

There's a lot behind this question and I'm not asking for an answer but you might want to do some self reflection.

Jess I think she was asking a general question, but had to preface it with "No negative comments please" because there was bound to be someone (in this case, you), that would have a sideways comment. People like you make it hard for beginners to post anything. Get The F over yourself.

She wasn't asking a question with a question she was simply stating that there is a lot more to your question that maybe you might want to rethink, I mean why go through all this if we can't maintain and control our diets. Maybe you should get some help from some of the many support groups. She had some good points and you shouldn't take people's advise so critically we are just trying to help each other out on this website we have enough people putting us down because we're overweight, let alone we hit on each other.

I personally think it was a little condescending. There is a way to be helpful and supportive without smart azz undertones. We're all in the same boat, and are taking a big step to improve and change our lives. No matter where you are in this journey, don't ever feel like you're at a comfort level to come at someone. This is about support.

I found the pre op diet much harder than post op (for obvious reasons). That said, cheating obviously happens, but it really sets up a bad precedence. If you cheated then it's already done but I would not do it again. You're only hurting yourself.

I was supposed to be in liquids only. Clear, sodium free liquids. I definitely had a pickle every day after the first 5 days of my 2 week diet and the dr said my liver was tiny. But I needed to chew something because I was gonna lose it. It was a pickle or something worse so I opted for he pickle.

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣
