i have cheated

mazbrad,

I echo what peterborough guy has to say - you worry about having one egg sandwich (btw - I can understand wanting an egg sandwich as I love them!!) yet you started your liver shrinkage diet a week earlier than you needed. Answer this - would you have beaten yourself up about it if you had eaten it the day before you started your milk diet? No, I sure you wouldn't!!! So, praise yourself for sticking to it for 2 weeks already and having just another 3 days of it to go before your big day!!

As for the weight loss - over 2 weeks you've lost 10lb - wouldn't you be happy with that weight loss usually? From what I've seen on here and elsewhere, most people lose between 10lb and 15lb on the liver shrinkage diet so you've done as well as most people!! Your body is probably getting wise to what you've been up to over the last 2 weeks and has gone into salvage mode this week. However, inside you, your liver is probably shrinking as quickly as a slug covered in salt!!!

Good luck for friday, I'm sure you will do fine!!

Tatiana is right, I normally wouldn't have dreamed of loosing 15lbs in a month of Sundays let alone just over two weeks. I was disappointed as the weight fell off at first which is usual, then stalled. But why be disappointed ANY weight loss is fantastic, as that isn't the idea of the diet.

I only started the milk diet two days early, but found as it got nearer the end, I was slavering at anything that wasn't nailed down, and so nearly fell. If I had started it much earlier I am sure I would have succombed and eaten something before my time was up.

That is the only advice I would give is don't start the diet too early. The surgeons know what they are doing, when they set the length of time, and probably know the temptation becomes too great for some. I don't know how the ones do it for a whole month and take my hat off to them x

How are you today, hunnie. Only 2 more diet days to go, yehhhh. Soon be Friday x

Do not beat yourself up just stay strong and move on. The pre op diet does scare the pants of you but an egg sandwich I doubt will tripple your liver size. Good luck x
