Pre Op Liquid Dieters Post Here!



Recommended Posts

Am on day 4 of my Opti Fast liquid diet. It is not easy, but I am thrilled to say I have lost 15 pounds since Thursday! I hope this means I will be a quick loser after VSG also. I am down 21 since the 5th. How is everyone else doing? My surgery is November 8th.

Sorry - not a pre-op dieter - but just wanted to hop in and say best of luck to you! Hope you have a safe surgery and speedy recovery!

My pre op diet was also Optifast. I know its hard to stick to it sometimes - but dont give up on it - it does wonders! LOL

Hi All, Started my liquid diet today, drinking Optifast and broth and teas in between. I had tried Opifast before as one of my weight loss options, lost alot but gained back over time once you start eating real food again. Getting sleeved October 25th. I am so nervous and anxious balled up into one. I wish everyone luck!!!

I started my liquid pre-op diet on Monday morning. I've dropped 7 lbs in 2 days! :D I have followed the diet as directed and I'm getting in all of my Protein and clear fluids... But, I am feeling somewhat weak and shaky, especially in the morning time. Yesterday, it subsided once I had a Protein Shake and some sugar free Jello. It is the same today. Just curious, does anyone else experience weakness and shakiness while on the pre-op liquid diet?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
