Did your surgeon say you needed to lose weight before surgery in order to proceed? If not don't be worried. Some people lose a lot of weight on their pre-op diet (I lost about 12lbs) while other people any lose a little. The purpose of pre-op is to shrink your liver to make access to your stomach easier for the surgeon. As long as you stuck to your shakes and didn't eat foods outside of your pre-op diet allow list, I think you'll be fine!

Don't over-worry yourself. :)
