I Screwed up

I fell like caca...I have surgery this coming Wed am..Monday I start liquid required diet 2 days prior to surgery.In the meantime I am suppose to be on liver reduction diet. My car steered itself to Fazolis tonight and I cant believe I had a spaghetti with 3 small meatballs..I know... I suck and I know I blew it..I have lost 20lbs on pre op..but not always faithful avoiding those terrible carbs. Do you think tonight's screw up will fatten my liver?  BTW..if your tempted to cheat...DONT..I feel like crap physically and emotionally.

You just fell of the wagon...get up and get back on.  Don't beat yourself up over it. 

Hello there,

I am in the exact same boat your in.  My surgery is July 24.  I have been on the liver reduction diet for 3 months and have lost 35 pounds.  I had a family reunion this weekend and totally blew it.  I had cake, chips, 2 cans of soda and several other things I should have had enough control not to have had.  I feel horrible!  The guilt is killing me.  I am also totally concerned that I have messed up my liver.  I have been pretty faithful on the liver reduction diet but have surcome to a few things I shouldn't have.  Just want you to know your not alone.

Don't beat yourselves up.  One time is not going to significantly fatten your liver.  Just try to be careful from here on.

Next time you get a craving for Fazoli's, order just the meatballs and marinara sauce (3 meatballs) and a small salad.  They'll sell the meatballs without the spaghetti.

I had/have a fatty liver and they didn't even make me go on the diet???  I dunno.  So, while I am sure that the Fazoli's didn't fatten your liver, I think a slightly chubby liver is expected.   Like everyone said....just get back on it.  You are doing GREAT!
