Daisy Day 91 Posted October 23, 2016 I'm on a restricted diet to shrink my liver, my surgeon does a 4-6 week super low carb, low calorie, no sugar diet instead of a 2 week liquid Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bugsmema 2 Posted October 23, 2016 That sounds better than this 2week boost. That's what this is for also, to shrink the liver. What was your date? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisy Day 91 Posted October 24, 2016 Every surgeon and every patient is different, every journey is unique. I had to lose 16 pounds and as of this morning I had hit the 48 pound mark on the scale. I can't wait to hit the 100 or 150 pound marks. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harriet Primost Greenberg 2 Posted October 24, 2016 So, tomorrow I will be 4 weeks out from my RNY and I am doing great. No complications. I have lost 12 lbs. If you have any questions please let me know. Harriet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisy Day 91 Posted October 25, 2016 That is Awesome !!! I'm struggling with the low calories and no caffeine thing, I am dragging, I'm hoping that after surgery every thing will start to go back up hill while the weight comes off.
