So I go for my final weight in before surgery tomorrow and the past three days I have lost nothing on the liquid diet. I'm beyond frustrated. I lost 8 pounds in the first 7 days and have completley plateaued the past three days, I thought it may be because its that time of the month, but really?? I haven't cheated once!! Just hoping I can lose the extra few pounds I needed before my surgery on Tuesday May 3! Sorry I just needed to vent!!!

Yep, it happens. The body has several mechanisms to conserve energy and therefore NOT consume fat stores. Water and solid waste retention are two other factors to consider too. You might not lose any more or very little. You've done great though by losing 8 pounds in 7 days.

You will resume loss post surgery.
