It varies person to person. Some people lose 10-15 and others don't seem to lose any.

I was scheduled to have lapband in Nov2011, so dr gave me shakes (protein to drink two weeks prior) well instead of lapband I ended up with gallbladder surgery and it was rescheduled until January 2012, during that time I kept drinking shakes and I lost 26 lbs before having lapband. I was only drinking one a day sometimes two.

I was on something similar to Adkins and didn't lose anything until I was banded.

I lost 19lbs & my husband lost 30 lbs. Each person is different & each preop diet is different.

Good luck!

I was on two shakes and one meal, plus all the veggies I wanted and Snacks of fruit for three weeks lost 16 lbs.

I'm sure everyone is different and everyone's preoperative diet is different too.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
