moondoggie1983 202 Posted May 5, 2018 Amazing job on your current weight loss!I’m on day 8 of my liquid diet & Down 10lbs! Thank you!!! I didn’t lose any weight for 2 days, now I’m down another pound. I figure as long as I stay on the diet, I’ll be ok weight loss or not. Ive heard some people actually gain weight on the pre-op because of all the Water. But I’m feeling so much healthier already since I’ve lost 54 pounds since last August. Easier to move and a1c way down. Your 10 pounds is incredible! Awesome job! HW: 311 CW: 257 SW: We’ll see on May 10!

ReneKiser 6 Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) I’m from Kingsport, TN. Can’t believe we are less than a week! My pre-op appointment is Monday. I don’t know how much (if any) that I’ve lost since starting pre-op diet because I haven’t even gotten a new scale yet. Mine quit working. 😝 I feel like I’ve lost though.

TreeMystic 33 Posted May 8, 2018 Mine is tomorrow! I've just tried to stay busy and only drinking Water and lemonade, now the Jello and Protein Shakes and broth was unappealing to me. and I had some issues. I found as long as you don't smell the food i have no real crazy hunger. Happy about that! I'm ready and will look for everyone who is having it this week in the forums to see how we are all doing. 1 lcole reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
