2 weeks is not unusual for those docs who do a pre-op diet - maybe half the docs require them (mine didn't, and doesn't even do a liquid only phase post-op, either.). Of those who do such diets,some do the liquids only thing while others just do some form of low carb, sometimes with a liquid component (like 2 shakes a day and a low carb meal.) There's lots of variations out there.

Me too!! And after my surgery June 11th it's 2 months of liquid diet. I'm scared as heck but so ready to try my best bc I'm more excited for good results if you know what I mean? I say that now, lying in my comfy bed the day BEFORE! Lol. Hopefully I will be singing the same tune in a day or two! :-p

How is this possible... How could I possibly be up 3 lbs in 3 days on this pre-op diet?!?!?!?!?

HELP?!?!?! I do not understand. I have been trying so hard & my only slip up was a small piece of orange chicken on Sunday. I can't make sense of this.

Any ideas?!?!?!!?

I hope I'm doing this right. I've never done a forum before. I'm having my surgery done in Tijuana in 3 weeks and I'm wanting to get an idea of what to expect.

I recommend that you start a new thread asking this in the Mexico forum. Lots of people have had it there and you shouldn't have any issues getting your questions answered.

Thank you!

I'm really concerned though b/c my surgery day is Thursday!! I am just totally petrified that my surgery will be canceled b/c of this. I don't know what to do. I had been progressing right along on Week 1-- lost 9 lbs. Start 2nd week (more restrictive phase) and 3 days later BOOM, I'm up three lbs.

I'm sure most of this is just my nerves talking b/c I'm worried about having the surgery (never had surgery before)

Thanks for letting me vent!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
