Hi, I am just curious to hear what all of you lost only during the 2 week liquid diet phase. I know everyone has/had different direction up to the pre-op liquid diet (for example I have to log a journal for 3 months and lose 6 lbs before referral to my surgeon). I am curious how weight lose during that 2 week period varies. If you are comfortable putting you starting weight, height, and age too I would appreciate it! I am hoping to be sleeved in august. Thanks in advance. (Sorry if I am being nosy, I am excited and curious and interested all at once)

I lost 7lbs on the 2 week pre op diet. I was 315lbs pre op, 308lbs day of surgery and I am now 272lbs. I am 5'5" and my surgery date was March 10th

I lost 7kilo in the 2 weeks pre op and was 120kg to start

I lost 19.2lbs during the two week pre op

I'm 43 years young, 5'6", my starting weight was 315 and I weighed 298 on the date of my surgery. I had a 13 day pre-op diet that consisted of 2 high Protein shakes and a single meal with lean meat, non starchy veg, (low fat/no carbs). I could add an additional shake or a handful of nuts if needed for hunger. Then for the day before I was on Clear liquids and nothing after midnight.

Pre Op 298,,,,,day of surgery 288

Now 7 months out 207lbs. I'm 5"7 and HAPPY!!!

Thank you everyone! I am so anxious to get this going. I've been researching the protein shake options.

I only had 1 week of liquid diet preop-and I lost 12 pounds.

So it sounds like even this can differ from Dr to Dr. Some have liquid diet 1 week, 2 weeks, or 1 day? I wonder what I will have to do. I think I'm going to start some shakes here and there so it's not a culture shock. I've already been upping my protein.

Good idea to try out the Protein drinks. Also upping your protein now will help your hair later...

Thanks Tammy. My hair is already thin. I need all the help I can get in regards to hair!
