liquid hell

Day 6 of my liquid hell and I have only 1 pound out of 15 pounds the I have to lose before surgery and I am upset. I fear that my doctor might cancel my surgery due to not enough weight lose. I don't know what to do. I eat 800 to 1200 calories a day so I don't know whats wrong with me. when am I suppose to see weight lose?

Don't fear... be encouraged! The amount of pounds isn't necessary even 1 pound makes a difference, the point of the pre-op is to remove the fat from your liver so it's easier to move and work around during the surgery. They know you're not really able to lose weight on your own that's why you're getting the surgery. But stay on it, it will all be worth it when you have an easy surgery and an even easier recovery. Keep us posted! :)

are you only liquids only? or are you still eating some solids? i too was on a 2 week pre op liquid only diet, anything sugar free and liquid i could have. It did work for me and it can work for you. We work way too hard to get where we are and you CAN do this!! Good luck
