I think everyone has had a slip at pre op. We all slip with our sleeve. Life is life and we all do the best we can. Forget it, move on and good luck.
As everyone else said - do your best to follow the pre-op from here on. It really does help shrink the liver and that is important. My surgeon was very concerned about my liver, but after the two week pre-op when he got in there he said my liver looked really good. I've been on the verge of cirrhosis (spelling?) of the liver due to fatty liver, but he said he didn't see any evidence of that even though I had had a biopsy a year or so ago that showed I was in stage 2. Best wishes. I hope your surgery goes as well as mine did!
Hi,
Don't panic if you have kept to the diet all the other time , how much do you weigh ? I weighed 266lbs and had to do a 11day 1000 cal diet and I stuck to it for about 8 days in total and that's including the delicious farewell meal I had the night before my surgery. I lost 7lb before my op and I asked my consultant what state my liver was in and he said it was fine and my op was an easy one . Obviously if you are weighing a lot more then it's more important because of the size of your liver from all the day . Make sure you drink lots of water today as that will help with the little mistake you made . Don't panic as there is nothing you can do now and you've still got 3 days to fix it.
Good luck

Well done with the liver that's amazing I didn't realise you could get sirrosis of the liver from fat.
