Lolipop86 9 Posted June 16, 2012 I WENT for my pre op physical today and it went very Well I was really happy with my results. And What really put the icing on the cake was my Dr. said I lost 8.5 lbs since she last weighed me on this Monday when I started my 10day high Protein liquid diet! I was in shock I couldn't believe I lost that much... I don't think I Gave EVER LOST THIS MUCH IN AS LITTLE AS 5 DAYS! AND I STILL GOT ANOTHER 5 DAYS TO GO BEFORE MY SURGERY NEXT THURS. THE 21ST:) :)VERY EXCITED AND SO PROUD OF MYSELF...IT TRULY WAS HARD! 2 berniec and missy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulB 346 Posted June 16, 2012 Just think of it as a head start on what you need to lose and good luck with your surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolipop86 9 Posted June 16, 2012 Thank you so much:) it might not sound like a lot but to me it is because I have been obese the majority of my life... It was really difficult for me to lose any? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolipop86 9 Posted June 16, 2012 Just think of it as a head start on what you need to lose and good luck with your surgery Yes thank you so much... I must admit tho yesterday for the first time ever I tried to cheat I picked at a little piece of chicken but I very much regretted it instantly.... I got very sick to my stomach once I chewed it... I got nausea and ended up vomiting. I confessed to my Dr today and she told me I had that reaction because my stomach hadn't had food in days... Doing so upset my stomach. My appetite she mentioned has changed... I'm dying to find out how life after surgery will be..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynn 49 Posted June 16, 2012 I was happy with the 14 lbs i lost on the pre op diet. I do recommend staying off the scale once u get home till most of the gas and iv fluids r gone so u keep ur spirit up. I came home weighting more than what i weighted when i got there. I should have stayed off for a week or so. Sent from my DROID RAZR using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolipop86 9 Posted June 16, 2012 The good thing is I don't have a scale...for the same reason I don't wanna get disappointed. I work at a clinic full time and even tho I have access to the scale I avoid it. Thank you so much for your advice! Take care:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
