I cheated on my Pre op



Recommended Posts

Just get back on track & you should be fine since your surgery is still days away but I would alert your team ASAP. You don't want to get into surgery and they find things in your bowels & may not continue with the surgery. Also, post-op surgery slips are really dangerous due to healing issues so it's good to get in the mind frame to dedicate yourself to follow the post-op plan for your safety. Good luck!

You are a whole 7 days from surgery, you will be fine, just don't go outside your guidelines again. Stick to your pre op diet like glue. Its torture, we all know it because we have done it and succeeded in shrinking our livers so the surgery was safe to go ahead.

About 3 weeks ago somebody posted that the surgeon began the surgery and stopped because the patient had a huge liver. They were devastated. You can do this

Not the worst thing to cheat with and you have everyone here's sympathy, it's really REALLY hard. I agree, I would tell your team just in case though. Good luck with the rest of your preparation.

There was another woman on here that she was opened up and her liver was still too large and her surgeon could not do her surgery so she was closed up. All that for nothing.

Keep that in mind next time you want to cheat. Thinking about how horrible it would be to be put under and cut up all for nothing and have to go thru this pre-op process again!

PS: Not being rude by any means, just thought it might help you stay focused.

You should be fine just don’t do it again. And definitely DONT do it post op. The worst thing that can happen pre op is they have to cancel your surgery. Post op you can end up in hospital or worse. You can do this. Prove It to yourself from now till surgery so you know you can do it post op.

      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! 😞
