Weight loss from pre-diet

[Donna0526 0]

:redface: I was just wondering how much weight some of you have lost on the all liquid pre-diet!?!? I started Optifast on 8/30 and had lost only 3 lbs. on my dr. visit on 9/02. My doctor said that some people lose weight quickly when their calorie intake is drastically reduced, while other people lose very little. As of today, I have lost a total of 9.5 lbs. My surgery is scheduled for this Friday, Sep12, so I have three more days of liquids. I hope i can lose another 3 or 4 lbs.

I lost 32 pounds and was on a preop diet for 5 and 1/2 weeks.

Since the surgery I've "relost" the 14 I gained on surgery day!!! and another 9, for a total of 41.4 lost to date. It WILL slow down though I know once I get food again. And I had a LOT to lose to begin with if you'll check my starting weight!

I think it all depends how much weight you have to lose also I am on the pre op optifast diet my surgery is on the 15th Sept but I have been on mine since the 22 August so up to today which is the 09th Sept I lost 12 kgs or 26.4lbs but my starting weight was 149.4kgs or 328.68 works different for everyone and depends if you are be active. ((Good Luck for your Surgery.))
