Have any of you had this happen during the 2 week pre-op diet?

[angelajo 6]

In November I lost 7 pounds on the 1200 calorie they put me on with walking 5 miles a day. I started the clear liquid diet with 3 pure lean Protein Shakes and I can't lose a pound since last Wednesday. I am still walking at least 5 miles a day and haven't cheated. I don't get it? My doc wants me t lose 10 pounds by Thursday if I get my insurance through. When I calculate my calories for the day I am having about 500 calories with all 3 Protein shakes, sugarfree Jello, sf popsicles, broth and Water. Please help....... thank you!

Its your body's fighting against starving so its holding onto the fat! As your body adjust to your new diet the weight will start coming off again.

It will happen. Stalls are common. Your body thinks your starving so it's storing but it will eat the stores once it realize this is the new plan. You could also be retaining Water. Try to Lower your sodium intake. Plus the ore opt diet is really to help shrink your liver. It's happening just keep up the work. It will be worth it.
