I have the same problem Stephenie. If I haven't lost ~10 lbs on Friday, then my doctor said we might have to postpone. I have decided its out of my control now. I have done the best I can and if its not my time, its not my time..
The only regret I would have is that I would have to continue these nasty shakes! LOL

Stephanie,
I don't like doctors that do that to us... I think it's really wrong of them... however having said that, it may be his way of making sure you do the preop diet to the "T". I've been doing my best to stick to protein drink, chicken broth (fat free) and sugar free jello for the last 7 days...(I cheated a bit and had chick salad and regular salad a few time when I was starvin). I've lost 5 lbs in 5 days (my surgery is tomorrow)
. I'm sure if you stick to it, that's certainly possible but it's NOT easy.
Put your mind to it, I'm sure you can do it... once your through surgery, you'll be eating same foods for a while.
Good luck!!

Hey ladies and gents,
I need some help here, I think I am having a panic attack. My surgery is the 14th and my doctor has told me that if I don't lose at least 8 lbs he won't do the surgery on me. Anyone heard of this before. He's really sweet and compassionate, its just I am freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CAN A PERSON LOSE 8 LBS-10LBS in 8 days????????

My surgery is on the 14th and I have to do the liquid diet two times a day and then one no fat meal once a day. I am soooo scared. I am worried cause my doctor said that if I don't loose 8 lbs by the 14th he won't do the surgery. Have you guys heard of this?????? I am freaking. The liquid sucks, I am going to try and make it into a shake tonight.
