I'm not sure the reason for your urgent weight loss need but in that short of a period I'd say do an all liquid diet just like the pre-op diet....

Sorry, should've explained myself more. That's my surgery date. I don't want to reschedule so I'm really trying to lose the lbs. unfortunately I've been stuck since last week and I'm cutting it close. ☹️

I had to loose 14 pounds In 2 weeks before surgery or mine would of been rescheduled , I went on a strict liquid diet and lost exactly 14 pounds

If you drink Isopure (clear Protein drinks) instead of shakes you should lose faster also. No carbs and less calories. Thats all my surgeon allows preop and 1st week post. I did Clear liquids for 6 days and lost 8lbs before finding out insurnace denied me :(

Avoid carbs like the plague - no sugars and no starches, and you will be less hungry. Make sure the shakes have 1/3 the RDA of Vitamins and minerals, or take a good Multivitamin.
