Anyone losing weight on the liquid diet ??

I started my pre-op diet on Friday the 3rd and lost 9lbs so far (which would have been awesome if I hadn't gained 5lbs the week before during my "food funeral" lol). Still, 9lbs is 9lbs and I still have a little over a week to go. :)

I had a week where I had 5 days of regular food (but I was doing low calorie, high Protein, low carbs) and 2 days of liquids and I lost 6 pounds. Then I lost another 3 pounds in 2 days doing liquids. So it seems to be working pretty well.

If my hunk of junk scale I have at home is correct I have lost 13 to 15 pounds. Stepped on it 3 times got 3 different numbers. Which would make me down a total of 30 pounds before surgery with 5 day to go.
I get to eat green veggies though, so it’s not all liquid. Haven’t had more then 300 calories all week. Protein Shakes aren’t really shakes I mix isolate whey Protein with Water only. If I could get to 40pounds down before surgery I swear I will do a somersault. Haha 😆 not really.

Anyone know of A good brand for a scale? It would be nice to have an accurate one during this process. Though I don’t really weigh myself.

I have two hippih and healthometer they are close enough when I weigh in but my favorite was weight watchers that scale was right on.

@KRush88 weight watchers is the one I have. 😆 It’s 3 years old it’s been sitting in my closet for a long time. Maybe it’s broken. Gives me a different number every time.

Aww man! I think all my scales are off and they are never the same as the doctors scales. I just weigh in every Monday. If it say the same the times then that’s what I take. I weigh on two scales to see the difference.

I had mine August 2 and was discharged August 5. A week post op certainly feels better than my first day off the pain pump (2nd post op day), but I am resting much better at home, tired of all of the sweetness of Protein Shakes, as I am not a sweet eater anyway, and SO looking forward to that first soft scrambled egg! I started with being up a few hours tiring me out to being up most of today folding laundry, doing dishes, cooking a meal for my daughter, and some general organization. Also, for a flavor oriented, savory eater, it is AMAZING what a couple tiny tastes of mustard on my tongue did for my attitude!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
