Pre Surgery And Not Losing

[herewegoagain 15]

Am worried that my surgeon will cancel my revision surgery. The Preop bariatrician asked if I could lose 5-10 pounds before surgery. Of course, I said yes. I immediately put myself on a 1200 cal diet. I know it is accurate because I am a diabetes nurse educator. My nut said because I am only 4 foot 10, 1200 cals is too much. So, tomorrow I begin a shake and yogurt for Breakfast and lunch and all Protein for dinner. No more than 1000 cals for one week. I see the surgeon June 14 and surgery is the 27th. I can do this!!! Right??? Did anyone else have this problem? I feel like a failure and have tried so hard for 5 weeks. She said 1200 is maintenance for me. UGH!!
