Im Stressing Preop Diet

[Amytequilahouse 184]

I guys well I dropped 15 lbs that was required by the nutritionist for the surgery cleared on 5/10. My coordinator took 10 days before ahe gave me my surgery date (6/4) bu the time I started my liquid diet 5/21 I had gone up 5 lbs. I've lost 3 of those five already and hopefully the rest by 5/30 my last doc visit before surgery.

My question is, did anyone lose and then gain back a few before surgery? Did the doctor still do the surgery? I'm also spotting right now hoping to finish my monthly before my surgery.

wish I could answer you better. My surgeon requires a 30 day pre-op diet of 30g carbs or less, those are total carbs not net. My surgery is June 4th too and started the diet a while ago, actually have lost 23lbs from the diet but did have a couple of weeks of nothing. I don't know why but I'm so anxious about the surgery, why do I have to be the tupe of person who seeks out the horror stories....
