Just curious how much you all lost on pre-op. I am down 10 pounds so far...makes it more bearable. :-) Kinda thinking it is all Water weight right now, though. I pee a lot on this diet!

Happy June Junebug! I dropped 15 pounds pre-op following two weeks of liquid protein drinks. I'm sure several pounds of water weight. Good luck with your surgery!

I was on the sugar busters diet and lost 10 lbs

I lost 17 lbs on my pre op diet, and yes I did pee a lot too. It is a lot of Water to get rid of, but just think, your not consuming any fat either.

Best of Luck to you

I'm on the last day of the pre-op diet. So far I've lost 13 lbs. I think my body is trying to hold on to everything...I went several days without losing any weight at all.

I've been in preop diet for two weeks lost about 8 lbs. don't feel it yet except for the peeing a lot. Good luck to you! My surgery is I two days.

I lost 10 pounds in 12 days. I was shocked!

I lost 15 pounds in the 2 week liquid diet. Good luck on your journey.

I have one week to go...was hungry most the day...sometimes the shakes fill me up..some days, not so much. Good luck everyone! Seems we are all off to a good start!

Did anyone drink chicken broth in place of a shake?

I'm on my second to last day. I get weight tomorrow, but i got weight 1 week in and didn't lose anything

I thought about chicken broth, but it lacks the amount protein the shakes have..so stuck with the shakes. They are making me constipated something horrible, though...so...lost 12 pounds total..maybe 13 by tomorrow morning (surgery day).

@@bbyruth sorry no loss! I think most of mine was just water weight. Looks like we are getting banded a day apart!

GOOD LUCK!!! Sending good vibes. I'll be banded Wednesday

Band is in...have gas pains something horrible.... But I'm not even hungry! The meds may be helping with that. Doc filled me to 5cc's already! No problems swallowing or drinking...it's mainly the gas, so I keep walking every hour for 15 min. Good luck bbyruth! I couldn't sleep a wink the night before. Now all I want to do is sleep. No desire for juices or broth right now. So now on to the the post diet.. Which may be easier than I expected with band in place. Fingers crossed and positive vibes your way, bbyruth!

I'm down slightly over 6 lbs. that's with being on a 1000 calorie diet for the past week. I don't move around much so that doesn't help (I work mid nights and have a sedentary job, then fight to rest/sleep during the day).
