Maybe, look at the sugar/carb content of your shakes? Or maybe, it's a little early to see something on the scale?

For me, just one bite of anything with flour whatsoever will create an overwhelming craving for more! it's physiological - sugar and flour help create obesity in peole like me. The sugar and calories in the muffin aren't the issue, it's how the total package of ingredients combined react in YOUR body. don't eat any more muffins if you expect (hope, pray, etc.) to lose weight- lesson learned! the price may be too high in the long run! Do better today- that's all you can do!

Don't stress much. The major object of the pre surgery diet isn't so much about losing weight. It's meant more so to help reduce the size of your liver. When they do the surgery laproscopicaliy they have to move your liver to the side with a little wire utensil. The smaller and less fatty the liver is the easier it is for them to accomplish this. If they cant move your liver, you run the risk of your liver being nicked during the surgery. That would lead to the Surgeon having to open you up completely to repair the liver.

Everyone cheats at one time or another. A muffin isn't so bad. Just stick it out and do your best. You can do this!

I would say it might be your shake contents. check the sugar and carbs in your shakes. another thing is "critical days" my weight goes up for 3-4 lbs during that time.

Don't have shakes just sugar free stuff and cream broths . But I was not a big foodie eat about 1 time a day dinner and chips as snakes late at night but packed on the lb's and trashed my metabolism my nut thinks . She think it is going to be very hard for me to drop any weight till we can get my metabolism working so right. Go figure don't eat get heavy eat get heavy I'm not having a good week here

P.s I walk 3 Miles a day and have for over 60 days

Hi Colleen,

I'm on my pre-op diet since Tuesday, granted I am not on full liquids like some... 3 shakes a day and one high protein/low fat/low carb meal a day. It has not been bad. I'm so ready for this. I do what I can to mix it up with the shakes so I dont' get bored and that helps. I can't speak to the surgery yet, but others can help out and post on that.

Good luck!!

You can get through it & it's worth it! It's the best thing I ever did. I feel good! I can tie my shoes & walk upstairs with the laundry basket. AND, I'm wearing skinny jeans! I haven't worn size 8/10 clothes since I was in middle school, maybe even younger!
