Weight loss on liquid diet



Recommended Posts

I lost seven pounds in the first three days of my two week liquid diet. For the last two days, the scale hasn't budged when I am really needing encouragement. I know a lot of the weight was Water. Just curious what others have loss on the liquid diet.

It has happened to me in the past. Think of it as an ebb and flow... your body loses... it adjusts... then it loses again, then adjusts. Don't give up during the adjustment. Stay consistent and you'll have results. (And try to stay off the scale... it'll drive you crazy sometimes LOL) Good luck to you!

I have been obsessed with the scale and I know I shouldn't. Just wanting to see progress for the hard work.

The crazy thing is the scale doesn't always make sense. I lost 22 pounds on the pre-op. It was two weeks, very restrictive. I felt like I was a super model because I starved the whole time and all I could do is remind myself it was temporary and I could do it. So can you! :D

Try not to be too hard on yourself mentally because our bodies can do their own thing for a few days let alone the hormones and time of month etc.

If you stick with it, the weight will come off and be so worth it.

According to MY scale, I've lost 6lbs in the week I've been on this pre-op diet. According to my surgeon's scale, I've only lost 4lbs.
*shrugs*
Either way ... it's all going to come off in the end. :D

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
