When you report (here or elsewhere) how much weight you've lost, do you specify what you've lost PRE-surgery and POST-surgery, or do you just give an overall total since you made the decision to have surgery? I'm curious what everyone does.

Usually people say highest weight, surgery weight and current weight..

I'm just doing total (not separate) because I didn't lose an enormous amount. My preop diet was about ten days. I know some people are required to lose weight before surgery or have much longer diets and in that case I think it makes sense to separate the weight lost

I just count from my highest weight.

I am using my high weight when I went to the Dr the first time, which isn't my true highest weight, I only lost 7 pounds on my liquid diet, so there really isn't any reason to separate that out.
