Anume is it a pure liquid diet? Or so you do Protein drinks? Just curious if it can help me lose some weight before the 24th

I lost almost 17 pounds in 1 week and I only started working out on the 6th day due to side effects from the Opti fast, I had the nausea, headaches and the fatigue so I've just been kind of taking it easy this first week, but yesterday I started walking on my Wii Fit and doing aerobics on it and I tell you it works I have a treadmill but I didn't want to risk getting dizzy and hurting myself. a friend of mine had surgery about 4 years ago and she said she didn't lose any weight on the fast now I don't know if she didn't do something right or if she did some thing wrong but she said she could loose. I can tell you I was really worried about this part of my journey I thought that I would struggle really bad, with having 2 kids to prepare meals for but so far I've been doing great I have not cheated not 1 time I just pray that these next 3 weeks are smooth. When do you start?

Not for awhile but it will only be a week liquid diet. But I have to lose some weight before my next appointment on the 24th. I have lost 3 pounds in a week but need to lose at least 4-5 more. But all together I need to lose 14 pounds

Hi everyone! Surgery is set for October 28th. I have my final weigh in this week. I had to do 6 months of them for insurance. Then I have my psych eval and nutrition consult. No pre op diet. Just Clear Liquids 3 days before. We are all so close!

That week will fly by especially if you keep yourself busy, unfortunately for me like I said I had those side effects, and when I'm dizzy or have a headache I'm done for so I only left the house this past week to drop my kids off and pick them up from school, but my week still went by pretty fast. hopefully yours will too.

When do you start pre op diet cooksie? Is it like the 1 to 2 week liquid diet before surgery? Or is it just low low carbs and Protein drinks?

I started last Monday so I have 3 wks left. It is the low carb/protein drinks. I don't get hungry at all it's just not being able to eat what I want.
