Pre Op weight loss

Surgey scheduled for the 7th of March. Down 3lbs in two weeks. Goal is to lose 10 before day of surgery. Pushing the fluids hard. Hope I can do it.

Are you doing pre-op shakes? I have a week of shakes to do before my op on March 1st, but have started a couple of days early. It's hard but do-able. Let's get those livers of ours shrunk down to size!B)

Good luck over the next couple of weeks

No pre-op shakes. Water, sf Jello (lots of water) salads. I'm wondering if I'm begining to look like a rabbit. LOL.

We have our surgery on the same day. I had to start my pre-op diet today. I am at work and everybody is eating lunch and I am ready to start choking people. I also had to ditch my Diet Coke. It was a great relationship. I have not been through a breakup this bad in years....lol

If you need any help make sure to stay in touch...:)

I have been on the liquid diet for 1 week. I have lost 20 pounds. It is very hard to stay on it, but I am trying my best. I have had a few things to eat here and there, but very very little! I see my dr tomorrow for pre-op. Surgery is Monday, Feb 28!

Good luck and the really hard days seem to be Days 1 through 4. After that, it is a little easier!

Yesterday, I did so well with my diet. only fruits and vegetables. We are getting a storm tomorrow, so I stopped at the store on my way home from work this morning and I shopped HUNGRY. I go monday to hopefully get scheduled for the surgery. I will just accept what happened and move on.

What kind of liquids do you take in on the liquid diet besides Water?
