Pre op diet in 1 week ....need opinions.

I have lost 6 pounds in the last 6 weeks which is really good for me. (Since seeing my surgeon about my revision) I have PCOS and have always had trouble losing weight. During the next three weeks, my surgeon's goal is for me to lose 13 pounds about 5% of my current weight. I am scared that even with 100% compliance that I won't be able to lose that amount. The good news is that I have lost 45 pounds in the last year so I am on my way to success...just need to see how much slow losers lost on the 2week liquid preop diet. I also am not planning on doing a bucket list because I only have 3 weeks to go and I don't want to make my liver fatty for my surgeon to have more difficulty. I am already a revision. Thoughts and opinions?

Don't worry, you'll lose weight on the liquid diet. Try not to weigh, and be happily surprised!

Ok I'll have my husband hide the scale! I think I would have less anxiety lol

you lose more than just regular weight.. you will lose a lot of water weight and also ... well for lack of a better term , "poop weight".

I lost 10# on the 2 week pre op diet. Fear not, it WILL come off! You can do it!
