CheleLynn45 615 Posted January 13, 2015 I was weighed the day of surgery. The weight I use as my starting weight is the weight I weighed in at the docs before I started my pre op diet. That was one week before surgery. That is the weight my docs office uses too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tfarr 270 Posted January 13, 2015 I wasn't. But when I used the bathroom in the Pro-op there was a scale and I got on lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applegal79 19 Posted January 13, 2015 I wasn't weighed the day of surgery so I'm using my starting weight as my last pre OP appt, which probably isn't that accurate because my order OP appt was a week before Thanksgiving & was sleeved on 12/12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gettinghealthymom1 70 Posted January 13, 2015 I weighed myself that morning and they did weigh me right before surgery with my sweater and tennis shoes and all! I just went with my own morning weigh in sans shoes. It wasn't too off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BryBro63 410 Posted January 13, 2015 I weighed myself at home the day of the surgery. I did this without a stitch of clothing on, to get my actual weight. I then went to the hospital, weighed in with just the gown, and weighed the same. At least I had some consistency! When I go for office visits to my surgeon and nutritionist, the scale seems to fluctuate all over the place! Once I hit goal weight, I kind of let my clothing be my gauge.

Natasha Estrada 36 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) I got weighed 2 days before surgery when I signed the consent forms and then right before surgery at the hospital. I weighed the same at the hospital as I did on my own scale that morning so that's my presurgery weight though I am counting total pounds lost also since those 15lbs I did on my own certainly count Edited January 14, 2015 by Natasha Estrada Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
