How much did you lose on your 2 week preop diet?



Recommended Posts

I'm in my first day preop and I'm STARVING! I'm allowed 2 shakes and one 4 oz Protein and 1/2 cup green veggies. In between I can have 2 servings of each: broth, Jello & Popsicles (sugar free of coarse)

I lost 18 pounds during my pre-op diet. But they surgeon set a goal for me to get to, or he said he may not do the surgery. I was walking and walking and walking along with my liquid diet. I am have lost 20 pounds since my surgery 10 days ago and 38 all together, Seeing the scales today was very inspirational (first time I had been on the scale since being sleeved.)

I lost 16 in the first week. I'm in the middle of week 2 and haven't lost any. :\ very frustrating - especially since my liquid diet IS a liquid diet - no actual meals. I know what I lost the first week was mainly Water weight.

Due to a roller coaster ride with my insurance.. my 2 week liquid diet ended up being 10 days. My first week I lost 11 1/2 lbs & my 2nd week I only lost 3 1/2. I was on 3 shakes a day from New Direction (which we had to use & buy from the hospital). They were 200 calories each, included my Vitamins & I never felt hungry on them.

I just finished day 3 of my 14 day pre-op liquid diet. I have lost 7 pounds the first 3 days. I won't be able to get my Optifast until tomorrow. I've been drinking Boost Protien and Muscle Milk. The Optifast is so expensive, but that's what my surgeon requires. I will have a revision from band to sleeve on May 14, 2013.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
