My surgery is Friday as well!!! I've lost 6 so far and I'm not sure as to how much I should lose my doc never told me. I'm guessing it all depends on the doc. I didnt have to start my liquids until tomorrow but started it today!! I'm kinda freaking out about my liver not being small enough!! Anyways good luck on Friday and keep me posted on how you do and are doing.

congrats on friday surgeries - pre-op weight loss varies and each pre op diet seems to be different. I lost about 11 pounds on 2 weeks of 3 shakes per day and one "lien cuisine" or equivalent meal - i never cheated once even with the fourth of july weekend in there - ha! BEST OF LUCK TO US ALL ON OUR JOURNEYS!!!! :D

I'm scheduled for 5/23 and have 5 lbs to lose in 11 days for my pre-op. I'm also freaking out that I may not get there. I'm doing the shakes, and a lean dinner. Wish me luck!

So not looking forward to starting this liquid only diet. I was advised to drink one Protein Shake and three slim fast shakes for the first three days. After three days, I can trade one of the shakes for a small garden salad...... no small meals at all.....Surgery is set for the 25th..

Oh, ok so that's what they meant by a fatty liver. I'm day 1 of full liquids, it wasn't so bad only 6 more days to go!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
