PCOS and vsg pre op diet

My VSG is in 11 days 05-31 and I am on the pre op diet. On the 1st of May I started dieting in general to prepare for the pre op. I only lost 2 lbs. Now I'm on day 6 pre op diet and haven't lost any weight. I do have PCOS and didn't know if that's why or what I'm doing wrong.

For pre op I can have 2 protein shakes a day and 1 meal of 4oz protein and 1/2 cup non starchy veges I've been super strict and don't get why I haven't lost weight this month so far. Is this the same for others with PCOS or even non PCOS people??

    I have heard of some people that didn’t lose weight on the pre op. As said above as long as you are following the plan you will be fine. The main goal is to shrink the liver not to lose weight.
