How much did you lose on your pre-op diet?



Recommended Posts

Just curious how much everyone lost during their pre-op diet? I'm on a two week liquid diet and have lost 11 pounds and still have 4 days to go. Just wondering if I'm on the right track.

As always,

Thanks in advance! ❤️

I have only been on my Pre Op diet for 3 days but very interested in this. When is your surgery?

14 pounds in 8 days -

But that was mostly due to Not drinking and eating only liquids

I had one week liquid diet and I was also allowed two cups of fruit and/or non-starchy vegetables a day. I lost 12 lbs in that week. I was also exercising during that week as well.

Thank you for the feedback guys!

I talked to my nutritionist and she seems to think I'm doing it right. So I feel a lot more confident. ❤️

First two weeks I lost 20lbs

But I did my own preop of 9 weeks and lost 65lbs before surgery and I've lost 77lbs since then :)

I lost 12 lb with my pre-op diet. Had my surgery this past Wednesday. Only gained 2 lb from the surgery in the hospital which surprise me cause I feel so swollen.

Exercising!?....I feel tired and weak mostly, I think I might pass out if I tried to workout.

My first try before my surgery was canceled I lost 7 pounds in 7 days, but I'd been on liquid Breakfast and lunch for 3 weeks before. Ive been home working and eating lunch, so I think the lack of food will hit more this round. I lost 2 pounds in the first day so far, but I was a LOT hungrier. It definitely makes my daily 5k harder.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
