Anyone Else

Only 1 time..my mother's funeral dinner in September prior to my October surgery. The community ladies make great food, but i ate what I was allowed. I was on the aggressive ketotic diet from my nut. It allowed for 1 meal only with supplements the rest of the time. I made the meal the funeral dinner, and I did not have the desserts..though the cheesecake looked yummy. I ate the broccoli rice casserole, some meat and deviled eggs..if I didn't eat, I would've offended people I've loved my whole life. Good luck on your surgery and congrats for being in Texas since we couldn't go this year.

I cheated.  I had a 10-day pre-op.  My surgery was on a Tuesday.  The Wednesday before that......I had a "big mac" attack and had one with large fries.  That was the last "cheat" I did.

I did the pre op diet for 3 months and a few days. As for cheating I did. But not right before surgery my cheating was a mini tuna sub on toasted whole wheat with banana peppers. I did that once a week till 11 days before surgery. I made the decision that the last 10 days before surgery I was gonna be a trooper! Dr. Keith was firm about shrinking the liver and I had gone to far to screw up my cheating.  You did not mention what you ate when you cheated...was it healthy for just down right junk food. Good luck and I will be praying for you Wednesday..
