I get banded nov 7. I have cheated a few times on my full liquid pre op diet and I'm scared I haven't lost the weight for my surgery. I've lost 14 pounds. Do u think my doc will do the surgery? I weigh in on the 6th.

Ha ha, ok fries it is!

Oh and thanks evento e for the advice! I was going to have small steak and baked potato today but they said only liquids!

Woooo hoooo, I actually lost twenty one pounds, hi ho hi ho, off to surgery I go! Tomorrow is the date!

Thanks for the advice. I weigh in today. If I didn't have a problem sticking with a diet, I wouldn't be here. As of today now, I've lost 18 pounds and I'm feeling pretty good about my weight loss even though I cheated a couple times. I'm so excited, my surgery is scheduled for tomorrow!

Thanks guys Today is day four of my pre op diet, and I must admit today was not all that bad!

My surgery is scheduled for Nov 7 and I'm on day three of my diet to shrink my liver. I can have one protein shake a day, as many Sugar free Popsicles, sugar free jello, and broth that I want. I can also have two cups of fruit and one 8 oz skim milk or fat free yogurt. They also gave me a chocolate shake that I can have once daily and I'm starving to death. But my doctor would not tell me how much weight I should loose. They told me that they couldn't tell me because it was different for everyone. So I weigh 355 pounds. Does anyone know how much weight I should lose?

My surgery is scheduled for nov 7. My pre op diet consists of 1-2 protein shakes a day, all the sugar free jello, chicken broth, or diet drinks I want. 8 oz of skim milk or cottage cheese daily, and two cups of fresh fruit. Good luck! I'm excited and ready to makes some change in my life!

Thanks for the info, when did you have your surgery and how is your progress

Thanks so much! I'm so excited to do this, I hope everything goes well.

Thanks everyone. I'm just sorta nervous about how much I should lose. I would hate to go back to the doc an have him say ok miss tina, we expected you to lose 20 pounds and you only lost 15!
