Everyone's pre op is so different I don't know if there are averages, but...

My highest weight was 250lbs I am 5'5" tall. I was 246lbs the day I started pre op. I had a 10 day liquid diet and lost 10 lbs.

I had a preop diet from the time I entered the program but did not have a liquid preop diet. I ate similar to how we have to eat post sleeve (Protein first, low carb, little to no white sugars/flour/starch). I ate 1,200-2,000 calories a day (average of 1,400). I started in October of 2013. I lost 28 pounds preop. I was sleeved last Thursday and I've lost 11.5 pounds first week post op for a total of 39.5. I'm so glad I got a head start. I also started a blood pressure med in November that has some diuretic in it which accounted for some of that (I have lymph edema in my legs).

HW: 325 (probably higher once upon a time) with BMI of 51/52.

Day of surgery: 297, BMI 48

1week post op: 285

Goal: 155-165

I did do a full liquid diet on the day before surgery - but just one day.

I had a 2 week pre-op diet of 3 Protein Shakes and a 250-350 calorie meal. I only lost less than 10 lbs but I had already dropped my carbs a calories for 2-1/2 months prior so my body wasn't shocked as much as if I hadn't. In those 2-1/2 months I lost 28 total.
