July 10, 20179 yr My surgery date is 7/24 and I started liquids today. I hope these 2 weeks go by fast!
July 10, 20179 yr Started liquid diet today. I am noticing how many food commercials there are, even on the radio! Wow! I am super excited, surgery on July 17th! Does anyone know how much weight I should expect to lose on the pre op liquid?

July 11, 20179 yr Mine is the 18th and I'll be half way through tomorrow with the diet. Those that have been on it a few days, do you feel like you've lost any weight? I can't tell... getting in between 640-700 calories on this diet. I told my sleeve buddy how much I've been daydreaming about the puréed phase lol.

I'm the 19th so I'm right there with you! I am finding that this starvation diet (for me) has caused about a lb loss a day. Not worth it, it isn't pleasant to be starving for 5 hours all afternoon. But as long as it shrinks my liver for a successful surgery, I'm all for this pre op diet. It is difficult to feed my big family and not eat or taste, but I'm doing it. Tonight they enjoyed corn on the cob steamed and brushed with butter. But you know what? Weight loss and health is going to feel much better than corn tastes!
July 12, 20179 yr Author Thank you!! And haha yes, liquids and veggies definitely suck right now but it's going to be so worth it in the end! Definitely keep me updated!
