I cant believe I cheated so bad tonight for dinner. My surgery is Monday. I have lost 9 lbs during this pre-op period. I will do liquids on Saturday and Sunday. How could I be so stupid??? Has this happened to anyone else?

It happens to almost everyone, so don't kick your self too much. Just stop cheating and get pack on plan!

I've done it too. If we were really good at sticking to diets, we would not be here. Don't be hard on yourself. Just pick up the pieces and be really diligent about what goes in your mouth today and tomorrow.

Hugs!

DITTO! what everyone already said. We're human. Take care!

My surgery is also on Monday ....I cheated on Wed. I broke down and ate things I shouldn't have. It wasn't much...but I couldn't help it. I think as long as you "do good" this weekend, that is o.k. I am so temped to eat... I've lost about 12 lbs on my pre-op liquid diet. Monday will be here before we know it. I go in for 7:15 am!!!

sammey1 You are not alone, I had my surgery on 12/31 and did my

pre-op diet during Christmas holiday and that was so hard! My surgeon said I could have one meal on Christmas Day, but then back to liquids until surgery. I lost 16 pounds, but my liver was still fatty. I was so upset because I worked so hard on shrinking it. So hang in there it will be ok. Best wishes with your upcoming surgery.

I was banded on 3/12 and I've eaten regular foods already. So don't worry your not alone. I didn't vomit didn't have a problem. I'm back on liquids and creamed Soups and yogurt. I have lost some but not as much as I am sure I would if I was restricted. Remember we're not rstricted yet so not much has changed...we're healing. Some docs are more crazy about the diets at the beginning than others. We have our minds to change...you're fine...we'll all do it...it a process
