I'm home from surgery!
Glad you're doing well and that cheating didn't derail you.
Yes, the preop diet can be hard, but it is doable. It's for our benefit to shrink that liver so there's more room. A friend of mine had to have open RNY because her doc knicked her spleen during her lap surgery due to no pre-op diet. So, it's for your safety and the doc's as well.
