Because of some unrelated stuff I took a sabbatical from work. It just so happened to be shortly after my first appointment. I lost close to 15 lbs, just by not being stressed at work. It's completely unrealistic to stop working though in most cases and I cannot stay home forever. I go back to work about 2 weeks before my surgery(which is during my pre-op diet), so that makes me nervous (next week actually) I am also nervous because my surgery is also right after Thanksgiving. Double stress. I was only told to lose 6 lbs, it's different in every case though. The primary reason for weightloss before wls is to shrink the liver, to make room for the instruments, as well as ensure your safety. :) I doubt this helped. Lol sorry.

I had a 2 week pre op diet but it wasn't full liquid. I could still eat chicken and other foods. but I lost ten pounds within those 2 weeks. My doctor also did not require me to loose a specific amount pre surgery. As long as I followed the diet, he said it didn't matter if I lost a specific amount. But he did say the liver doesn't lie and if he started my surgery and liver was too fatty he would just close me back up and make me go on a full liquid 2 month diet before he would let me have surgery again.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
