Dissapointed with pre op diet results

I am on day 6 of my pre op liquid diet and have only lost 1.6 pounds. I have been following it faithfully but getting such poor results. My biggest concern is that my surgery gets cancelled. He gave me a three week all liquid diet and said I'd probably lose 20 pounds but at this rate I'd be lucky to lose 5!

Constipation could be part of it. Are you able to exercise at all? I am one week down' date=' one week to go of pre-op diet. I force myself to go to the gym even though I'm tired and woozy during the day. I guess every surgeon is different. Mine is not so concerned about pre-op weight loss so much as liver shrinkage.[/quote']
