Just wondering how fast the weight starts coming off after surgery. Im on my second day of the preop diet and Im getting reallllllly nervous and anxious. Also, what are some "free" foods during the preop diet? Ps Im effing starving!!!!!!!

Sorry I cannot offer any advice about free foods on the preop diet because doctor's preop diets can vary quite widely. I would refer you to any paperwork you got from your doctor or nurse about the preop diet. If you don't have anything, I suggest you give one or both a call.

My weekly weight loss has been as follows:

05/28/12 -12.2

06/04/12 -2.0

06/11/12 -6.8

06/18/12 -6.8

06/25/12 -4.4

07/02/12 -.3.6

For reference, I started my preop diet on May 22nd and my surgery was on June 5th. I lost 14.2 on the 2 week preop diet and 21.6 since surgery 4 weeks ago.

Good luck to you in your journey. The preop diet does get easier. For me and a lot of others I've seen post about it, it seems to be around day 4 when it does.

I'm 4 weeks post op. I lost 2lbs a day for the first 9 days. Then stalled for 8 days and am now losing about a pound a day. I'm down almost 45 lbs counting the 20 lbs I lost pre-op.

update: 5 weeks out and I lost a total of 50 lbs. Lots of liquid and lots of Protein. Very little hunger and very little desire to eat. I have to remind myself that scheduled eating is necessary. Exercise is mainly golf at the moment.

you have to do hard exercise for it.

Please keep concern into your account
