My pre op diet was the same as yours and I lost 10 pounds in three weeks which I thought was not a lot considering the effort I made. I remember not seeing the scale move until day 7, then little by little. Hang in there it will happen. 1 srboyd86 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
