anyone plateau on the 7-day clear liquid diet?

I was losing about 3 pounds a day for the first 4-5 days on the clear liquid diet and have hit a plateau! I've lost 15 pounds since the Dr. office a couple weeks ago--that's 15 pounds in 6 days. Even though I've stuck to the diet I don't seem to be dropping any more weight. Is this OK? Has anyone else experienced this?

Its normal. I look on it as though the body needs to rebalance and catchup. 15 pounds in 6 days is a lot of weight to lose.

For me if I lose more than about 10 or so pounds in a month I plateau. Say I lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks then I wont lose anything for 2 to 4 weeks.

You will do fine. Give it a few days. And if you haven't had your surgery yet you may gain some weight back from the IV and swelling right after you surgery. Remember, slow and steady wins the race.
