weight loss during pre-op

[jenger 22]

Hello there. I am starting my pre-op on Tuesday. I know everyone is on different pre-op diets, but I am just curious how much weight every one lost during pre-op? I will be doing two Protein Shakes and a lean low carb small meal, and then Clear Liquids three days prior to surgery. I posted this question in post-op b/c eveyone has most likely finished this phase. Thanks!

I lost 9 pounds the 3 weeks before surgery on the pre-op diet. No problem though, cause the surgery had already been approved, and I felt better that I had lost those lbs before the surgery. Kind of told me I could do it.

Lost 11 lbs in my 13 days prior to surgery but pretty sure it all came back on at the hospital due to IV fluids and air pumped into my abdomen for surgery.

Nice. I hope I am able to lose some too!
