Im on day 4 of 14 WHOOOhooooo . In Gods name I will not cheat. this diet is supposed to shrink your liver, clean your colon and also help you adapt to what your new life will look and feel like (with your new stomach and body!!) try not to cheat your self. Today was one of the hardest days for me. I really wanted to eat peanuts, kale anythiiiiiiiinnng but nop I thought about my repercussions. I believe they will cancel surgery if u don't lose from 8-10 pounds. Best of luck. We are all here for each other !!!

Anyone here cheated on their pre-op diet badly. As in big mac, large fries, coke (hold the ice) kind of cheating. If so, what were the repercussions?

I have seen many. Surgeon opens paitient up. Their liver has not shrunk. And they close them back up.
There are many pre op diets. But your doctor puts you on the one that suits you the best.
I'f you have come this far and cheated in the way you described your hyperthetical question.
No judgement from me.
But prepare to be disappointed with the outcome.
Some manage to have the surgery just fine. Some don't.
Speak to your team if you have done as described in case they can put you on a more aggressive plan for the last few days to make sure your liver has shrunk.

Fortunately it hasnt happened yet. Ive had binge eating disorder for years though and it almost seems inevitable so I wanted to get a sense of what I would be dealing with if I did. Ive got 8 days to go before my surgery and this diet is not getting easier.

Although now that you mention this im kinda scared to binge. I definitely do not want to have this procedure postponed after all this work. So thank you [emoji38][emoji113] !

[emoji817] I've cheated twice on my pre op diet and it's been bad (no soda or caffeine though) I knew I'd struggle so I started early. My pre op liquid diet is two weeks so instead of 14 days I made it 17 and tbh I think it was the best decision for me because I was able to pick myself up and I don't have to worry about major repercussions from it. You are human. Sh*t happens. For me my triggers were feeling overwhelmed and not having an outlet for those feelings, I've learned that, and now I'm good, I've got a handle on things, and I'm still right on track for my pre op diet. You got this!

You know I’m very overweight, 5’6” about 360 and I have 12 days til surgery. My hospital only requires a one day pre op diet which literally allows you to eat Breakfast as normal and liquids the rest of the day. My paperwork actually says ice cream counts as a liquid!! [emoji54]
I would think you would be ok and even though my doctor doesn’t require a diet I am trying to only have liquids and A dinner. The more weight I lose ahead of time the closer I get to goal.

You'll make it sarhgrif and the other side will be so bright and beautiful if we keep on target. I say this being 5ft8in and 323 that's only a skosh better than where you're at, let's vow to do this together. Victory will be ours as the plump until we are the formerly plump. And on We roll.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
