Weight lost during Pre-op diet

Surgery scheduled for Oct. 6th and I'm on day 3 of my pre-op diet. Which consists of 3 boost high protein shake and 2 cups of vegetables a day. I know it's only the 3rd day but I haven't lost any weight since I started. Has this happened to anyone else? Am I doing something wrong?

pre op and post op diets are to prepare the body for surgery not to lose weight.

hell if we could lose weight w/o WLS, as TMF says often, why get the surgery?

if you do lose, it will be mainly Water weight (not actual true weight loss), those and

those inches that matter over what the scale says come later on down the road

if you are not following your dr's advise on the pre op dieting then you are doing it wrong,

if you are doing what you are suppose to, then everything is fine...give yourself some credit

and keep doing what you are doing...do what dr says for best results..

all the best.
