Surgery date is 9/29.  Doc has me going through a 3 week liquid diet  but said the first week I could lead up to complete liquid (3 slim fasts + applesauce/yogurt), I've been doing really good but today caved and had peanut butter, nutella and a banana on a tortilla wrap.  actually two of them.  disappointed in myself since i'm only on day 5 and still have 16 days left.  :(

Just get back on the horse tomorrow. I start my two-week pre-op surgery Friday and I'm sure I will nibble on stuff I shouldn't. I will just get back on track as I'm sure you will also. Good Luck!

My doc had me on muscle milk light 150 calories and 20 grams protein up to five times a day then 3 oz of lean meat and a salad or green veggie for dinner for the first week.
Week two and three was liquid with a choice of minestrone soup or small salad (1 cup with spritzer) for dinner.
Last week was protein shakes and clear liquids

Day before surgery was clear liquids only until fasting time.

I lost 21 pounds before surgery.

I hope this helps.

and I lost my pre surg weight with plain 'ol tomato soup for dinner and slimfast for the other two meals....you'll do fine.   One of the lessons you need to learn right now before surgery, is things happen....and you forgive yourself and move on...the joy of the new tool will be you probably would have just had a taste of pb and maybe a piece of banana....:)

I snitched a bite here and there of a few things while on that diet and I stil lost a lot of weight and my organs did shrink up for the surgery. Not to fret just get back on and talk to us when you get those crazy cravings, we'll give you strength to resist. You can do it, only 16 days till count down, you will feel so good once it is over. Write how much better you will feel when you get craving and see if it helps, or call some one and talk about it. Keep your chin up and don't give up!
I can do it, I can do it, chugga, chugga, chugga said the little train! Thank you Lord for giving me the strength!

 Jess!  You can do this!  I KNOW how hard it is.  Get back on that horse tomorrow.  I cheated too.  Not proud to admit it, but I got right back up and grabbed that slim fast.
