Massive Pre Op Weight Loss

[JadeVT 41]

I still can't believe I lost 33 lbs in 2 weeks with that dang liquid diet before surgery!!! Did anyone else experience a massive weight loss with the pre-liquid diet? Just curious.

I'm a week post-op and already lost another 7lbs, which brings my total to 40lbs lost already. Still on full liquids at the moment but, I'm itching for this soft foods stage to get her in 2.5 weeks lol.

I'm here to tell you that at Day 4, I stopped thinking about how hard it was and found it to be a relief lol. I didn't have to think about cooking and debating on whether or not I should be eating such and such. Also, I had more energy. The first 3 days were somewhat of a withdrawl stage. Also, I had to get out of the mindset of it "being too hard".

When I put on my clothes on the 4th day and they fit better, I knew I was doing something awesome.

However, I cannot lie.....I had a bite of my mom's Italian Wedding Soup on Day 10. But that was the only "cheatation". sugar-free popsicles were my saving grace. I had every kind you could think of lol.
