new_me_2013 46 Posted September 1, 2013 I thought the pre-op diet would be hard as hell...well it's not great but I started my 2 week liver shrink diet Tuesday, today is Sunday & I've lost 12.5 lbs. I've NEVER been able to get the scale to budge like that. I'm sure it's mostly Water weight but I can even feel a difference in my work uniform pants! I'm totally motivated by watching the scale moving....if this is any indication of how it will be after surgery I can't wait! My only fear is loose skin but I know it's gonna happen most likely. Good luck to everyone...my surgery date is 9/10 so only 1 more week on this liver shrink diet. I know I couldn't follow it for life, too many temptations out there bit I haven't cheated! 2 LoryLosesXS and AmmyKelly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I told myself I've screwed up long enough & I wasn't going to mess up b/c if I can't even do the pre-op diet then what am I doing this for. I'm amazed at myself...finding it very therapeutic as well! Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
