I started my pre-op very low-calorie diet on 10/20 and have to do it until 11/22. I'm doing fine on it, but the only thing is I'm not losing weight as quickly as I was initially and I'm not going to the bathroom as much as I need to. I called my nutritionist to see if there's anything I can take to help my BMs but she hasn't gotten back to me yet. Does anyone have any advice please?

Thank you @ChiakiAngel! I'm just concerned that if I don't get down to a certain weight by my surgery date that I'll have a hard time getting to my overall target weight. I know better than to get hung up on numbers but I'm also just really frustrated that I'm eating so little and not seeing the scale move anymore. -
Is my goal weight too ambitious?

I used this site to figure out the likelihood of getting to 160 and it said "20%" so we'll see! https://www.obesitycoverage.com/weight-loss-surgeries/gastric-bypass/how-much-can-i-expect-to-lose -

My weight loss during my pre-op liquid diet has slowed down a bunch. At first I was losing at least 1lb+ a day. Now it's like half a pound or no change. Is this normal? I've been following all the rules! -

Good luck on your surgery today @LuckyCharm88! -
I gotta get some green tea - thanks for the tip!

I still have a few more weeks - I chose to start my liquid diet a few days early AND I have to do it for 28 days, but I'm doing okay! Are you seeing much weight loss yet with the liquid diet? Are you feeling different?

I survived the Halloween party last night without having any drinks, snacks or candy! Brought a protein shake with me and drank water and danced a bit. Had fun - proud of myself for following the rules! Down 9 pounds since 10/20!

Hi Camilla! Doing great so far, it definitely gets easier. I am on day eight and it feels pretty normal now. Going to a party later, that will be hard cuz there's going to be candy and alcohol everywhere. Wish me luck! Oh and I'm down 7 pounds.

Thank you! I can do it -
It really just says "current weight" so maybe it is from your weight at surgery time @brightfaith
-
I think it is from your highest weight - here's a guide I found: https://www.obesitycoverage.com/weight-loss-surgeries/gastric-bypass/how-much-can-i-expect-to-lose

I started my journey 6 months ago too! I'm so excited for surgery. -
No problem. I called my nutritionist to ask her if it was okay to start early and she said it was totally fine. You may want to do the same just in case.
-
I started my liquid diet almost a week earlier than I needed to and it turned out to be a great idea. It seems like the more weight you lose pre-op, the better you do post-op.

Amazing job - you look fantastic!!!

Woohoo @vrm2bfit! Are you excited? How are you feeling? -
Thanks for letting me know! I'm scared to try anything but chocolate since most other flavors are so nasty. What does it taste like?

Congrats!!!!
