Hey guys. I have surgery in 7 days time. I'm obviously on the pre op diet stage...however last night I had a binge. Eating lots of things I shouldn't have. Will it matter? Will it effect surgery? I'm worried my liver will have gotten bigger again as I'm supposed to be shrinking it. Any advice would be wonderful. Thankyou...and I hope any fellow sleeved are doing well post surgery. X

call me mean if you like but if you want someone to tell you its okay, sorry up front.

This is the time you need to reflect and learn from past bad habits, and if you can not do that then perhaps you have not made the right decision for your future. Can you get away with it this time without negative consequences, sure, but at what point will you become accountable for what you do and stop doing it? That is the question you really have to ask yourself. The pre-phase is not just to shrink your liver it is also to get you to change your bad habits and get you to take charge of your health. I am sorry to be blunt but if you are seriously going to do this and do it right the time for excuses and regret are over. If you do this after surgery you can seriously impact your health and possibly even endanger your life, that is a very real fact. If you are not going to become 100% committed to this life change do not endanger yourself. If this is what you want you have to take charge and change your whole lifestyle, if you are not ready to make that step, then maybe you are not truly ready for this.

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      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! 😞
