I lost 10 lb during my 2 week preop diet. They called it a liver shrinking diet: every day i could have 2 Protein Shakes, 2 Protein Snacks, and a dinner of lean meat and non starchy veggies.

I lost 12 pounds pre-surgery - gee I think that was the hardest 12 pounds out of the 100! Good luck to you, I know you can do it!

I am about 4 days our from surgery and if all stays the same about 10 lbs pre op, though I yoyo'd over the 7 month wait.

I'm on March 6th as well. I'm starting day 8 of my 2-week pre-op diet today. I lost 12.6 pounds the first week. My diet is full liquids; no solid food at all. I have 5 Glucerna shakes a day, chicken broth, G2 Gatorade, Water, and Tomato Soup. I haven't cheated any. The diet was a real challenge for a couple of days but then I didn't feel so hungry anymore. I'm in the groove now. You did very well on week 1 of your diet. Keep it up.
