March 23 Surgery/ Pre-Opt Diet

Hello,

Just started my liquid diet! How MUCH WEIGHT DID YOU GUYS lose ON IT? I was able to have a bunch of premier protein shakes and Jell-O, and some broth. I seasoned the hell out of that broth! I am so hungry.haha

  • Hang in there!! I lost 12lbs on mine, which was a nice jump start heading into surgery! First couple days are the worst, then your body gets used to it. GOOD LUCK!!!

    I'm rounding the corner to my March 16 surgery date and have been on the diet for two weeks (I started a few days early to give myself some rope). *My* scale says I'm down 17 lbs from my highest weigh

    Just got my surgery! I lost 25 lbs. I wouldn't say I like this gas.

I didn't lose much pre-surgery, under 5 pounds. I made my own veggie broth, which was much more flavorful. Boiled carrots, onion, bell pepper, zucchini, cabbage, canned tomatoes and 2 couple teaspoons of beef bouillon. Choose any veggies you like, boil until they are mushy, strain off the liquid. Discard the mushy veggies. It made a really good broth. Best wishes!

You lost a lot of weight hopefully, I lose that much with a sleeve, I'm 230 as well.

I'm rounding the corner to my March 16 surgery date and have been on the diet for two weeks (I started a few days early to give myself some rope). *My* scale says I'm down 17 lbs from my highest weight but of course I don't believe it because my doctor's scale is always a +4lb difference - old thinking patterns creeping in. ? I feel a lot better and it is noticeable to others and my clothes fit better.

Wow - that is a ton for just two weeks. Hang in there, and I hope the gas pains have already gone away.
