I Have to do the liquid diet for 14 days.. I am on day 9 and have lost 14 pounds so far... I have tasted a piece or two of chicken breast that was grilled... But that was it.. It took until day eight for it to get easy... But hang in there it will be okay

Have to start my Pre-Op diet 4 months in advance..but not because of surgery!
Prettynpink1982 replied to Heather Meyer's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You are definitely going to Lose a lot of weight Priya so just think of it as that... I have been doing the pre-diet for seven days and it is going okay and seeing the scale go down quite a bit I think I will reach my 15 to 20 pound loss by my surgery date of June 11... Good luck to you -
Sorry I am using talk to text and it just sent it the way it was. What I meant to say was I can't wait to be full from a smaller portion it seems like it takes so much to fill me up now. I am on a liquid diet these two weeks and I am on day 6 .., 8 to go

I totally Agree with what you were saying. I can't wait before from a smaller amount it does it dictates a lot of food to fill me up

June surgery dates
Prettynpink1982 replied to DenaLJ1354's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Me too... June 11th sooo excited!!! Good luck and well wishes and healing to June sleevers! -
I did a similar program with my primary care Dr. and I lost 60 pounds in a relatively short amount of time I would say seven months... And I kept it off for several months but the weight slowly creeped back on.., I am scheduled to be sleeved On June 11th... So I agree with the other people that you can lose weight on a particular program but it's the transition into normal life that is hard to keep the weight off... Having a smaller stomach will limit the amount you eat... which makes maintaining the weight easier... I also think that you know when it's your time to go through with WLS.. For me I was ecstatic when I lost the weight but miserable when the lbs came back on.. Also the hormone gherlin is reduced significantly with the surgery so hunger will also be less... Some Even say they are never hungry after having the sleeve... Which will be a blessing for me Good luck in your decision making process
