Ok so I was originally placed on a 10 day liquid diet, my stomach could not handle that much liquid and my sugar started dropping, so wilh 7 days left they told me I could eat one to two times a day just to be smart about my choices, like high protein and low fat.... I have done that but today I broke and ate a small slice of pizza 😞 ... I still have 4 days til surgery and 48 before is all clear liquids .... I'm terrified that something is gonna go wrong !! Please someone give me some positive feedback !! I know I broke it and that if I can't take this how will I adapt post surgery, I get that and trust me I am so disappointed in myself ! Did anyone else go through this ??

    It is easier post op due to the actual sleeve. So chin up. I was on 1 meal (lean protein and veggies) and shakes for 6 days and then liquid for 3. I actually just ate small versions of what I would miss post op. I did do the full 3 days of liquid, though. My surgeon said it is better to not have any food left in the stomach that might get into the incision and cause an infection. I took it very seriously. But I will say that some surgeons don't require a pre op at all so....makes you wonder what really will and will not affect you during surgery. Obviously some things make it safer. So I did hang strong for those 3 days. Good luck!

    Hang in there Chelle!!!! You got this. I am pre-op too and am praying that it all comes together post-op. It's a process and I am learning from all the others that have been before me. Please keep us posted after your surgery. Sending you high fives and cheers... YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

    Hi keep positive I did it for 5 whole day only protein drinks and lots of water I felt like I was gonna die specially being around so much temptation but I did it never in a million year I would think about not eating for five days. But I guess because my doctor to told what could happen if I eat days before surgery I got scare and follow all there rules ... you can do this
