Hi Everyone,
I started my liquid preop diet four days ago. I'm very upset because I've been following the diet very strictly. Since yesterday I've been experiencing horrible constipation pain and this morning I check my scale and I gained 2 pounds. How is that even possible. My surgury is next thursday and I need to lose weight to shrink my liver. I'm so discourage. Has anyone experience constipation with the liquid preop diet and gaining weight? Any advice is truly welcomed. Thank you.

I went through the same. Initial BMI was 41. I was told don’t gain anything, but don’t lose either. It was very stressful. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield in NY. I lost a few lbs but not too much. It took forever for them to approve me but they did. That little bit of weight loss showed I was trying. It’s better than gaining!

Hello Everyone. I recently started the process of preparing for the gastric sleeve surgery. One of the prerequisite for my insurance is a mandatory six month weigh-in. My bmi in my first weigh-in was 41. However, I just had a weight Today (5th One) and my Bmi was 39. I have unitedhealth care community plan in NY. Is there a chance that my insurance will reject my application for vsg if my bmi is below 40? I'm really nervous. My doctor said that they take to consideration my initial bmi of 41 and that losing a bit of weight is ok because it shows them I'm motivate. Please anyone let me know of your experience in this situation.
