    I was on my pre op liquid diet for 30 days due to a high bmi.. I lost 51 pounds on it.. If I could do it anyone can... I just told myself that I was not gonna go down there and have them tell me they can't do the surgery because my liver didn't shrink enough... remember that is possiable for them to tell you that.. that is what kept me motivated... and the bad part is they won't know until they cut into you.

    yes.. unfortunatly I have a higher BMI and have been asked by Susan.. Dr. Alavrez's assistant.. to go on a thirty day diet to shrink my Liver for the operation.. It is very rough the first couple days but gets easyer as I go.. I do have an attack every now and then but they are becoming fewer and fewer. in thirteen days I have already lost 21 pounds though.. going from 4000 calories a day probably to less than a thousand. 21 lbs is great but just a hand full of sand out of the sierra desert.. lol. Come on May 17th.. a dry salad seems like a cheeseburger to me right now... and I can't have either.
