*confession time*

 Ok so, I feel like such an idiot already! Does anyone have anything like  this to share?

This pre-op diet is so hard!

This is my 3rd day on it and tonight I had something naughty :(

I had a crumpet with peanut butter :(

I stopped at one. But I'm kind of annoyed with myself because I wanted to follow the pre-op diet 100%
My surgeon made the mistake of telling me that it didn't matter if I did the diet or not because I'm technically a "lightweight" patient....

Afterwards I went and brushed my teeth and had some mint gum.

There's always tomorrow I Guess :)

Oh, Sierra....don't beat yourself up.  I think that may be what got many of us to where we are today.  "I screwed up a little, so I'll just quit".  Just get back on track and know you didn't jeopardize your upcoming surgery.  You at least acknowledged what you did and stopped at one.  Before this journey, if you are like me, I'd have just said, "screw it, and kept right on eating".  Bottom line, be kind to yourself and forgive your mistakes and get right back on track....

Good luck!!!!

 Thanks so much for your reply Lenita :)
Thats true, in the past I probably would have had a
Big binge and said to myself, "I'll do better tomorrow".

I know this will be a long process, and I suspect in a way
After the surgery my tummy won't be grumbling (like it was
Tonight) and hopefully take away the need to over eat.

Im counting down the days til the surgery, hoping and
Praying for the best!

This just confirms for me I need some cognitive therapy
So I can REALLY fix my head, as well as my stomach!

Thanks again Lenita, you're the best!
