I went 9 days straight without cheating one bit and then boom I totally mess it up. Now I didn’t over do it, but either way I did eat on Friday a whopper Jr.

Saturday I got terrible news that a dear friend of only 31 years of age passed away of a massive heart attack and I ate a handful of chicken and 1 beef taco.

Sunday was the wake and after I ate a small mash potato and Monday too, and today I ate a cup of beef with rice.

I’m schedule for surgery this Thursday. Did I mess myself up?

Please, any help… :sad_smile:

Hey Yall,

I had my surgery on he first. So far only a few bumps. I got a hematoma on my port incision but only had to go on antibiotics. It looks much better. I really didnt have a very hard time at all. So far I have lost only 17.5 lbs with the pre op diet and all the liquids since. It hasnt been that bad. I havent exercised yet. No energy. I go back to the doctor next Thursday and will start soft diet after that. I do not regret having this surgery at all.

Congratulations!!

Don't worry about losing weight at this point. These eating stages are for just healing. Until you get your first fill, you may not even lose weight, and in fact, may gain a little. Don't worry about it though. It's all normal.

Be sure to check with your surgeon about the timeline for starting exercise. Some say 6 weeks so be sure to check at Thursday's appointment.

Take care and best wishes!! :redface:

Thank you for the the encouragement. I really appreciate it. I know things will be a little slow. I am still thankfull to God for this blessing.

Hi Lady in Red, I must say I never had to have a pre-op diet and got to enjoy my "last supper" which was a quesidilla, it was awesome! The night before that I had a mouth watering steak. My operation went without a hitch. I just couldn't eat or drink anything after 10pm that night. I am in a support group with lots of other members who went to the same clinic and it was exactly the same for them. I wouldn't worry about it. Two weeks of liquid diet befroe hand is a little extreme I think but hey what ever works for your doc!
