Weight loss from pre-diet

:redface: I was just wondering how much weight some of you have lost on the all liquid pre-diet!?!? I started Optifast on 8/30 and had lost only 3 lbs. on my dr. visit on 9/02. My doctor said that some people lose weight quickly when their calorie intake is drastically reduced, while other people lose very little. As of today, I have lost a total of 9.5 lbs. My surgery is scheduled for this Friday, Sep12, so I have three more days of liquids. I hope i can lose another 3 or 4 lbs.

I lost 32 pounds and was on a preop diet for 5 and 1/2 weeks.

Since the surgery I've "relost" the 14 I gained on surgery day!!! and another 9, for a total of 41.4 lost to date. It WILL slow down though I know once I get food again. And I had a LOT to lose to begin with if you'll check my starting weight!

I think it all depends how much weight you have to lose also I am on the pre op optifast diet my surgery is on the 15th Sept but I have been on mine since the 22 August so up to today which is the 09th Sept I lost 12 kgs or 26.4lbs but my starting weight was 149.4kgs or 328.68 works different for everyone and depends if you are be active. ((Good Luck for your Surgery.))

Started at 234 did two weeks liquid protein and lost 13lbs.
