Last Pre-op appt with the surgeon

I have my last pre-op appt with my surgeon on Tuesday the 14th, Right after my husbands surgery. But here is my deal. Back in August when I saw him i was like 315-320 I dont remember. He had told me he wanted me to start exercising (sp), Sipping my water, Keeping a journal, take my vitamins, and here is the Last thing, he wants me under 300. Ok great I have done all of that. I was 294 the end of September. But when I weighed myself at my husbands appt on the 7th I was 304 again. I am trying to loose the weight before my appt on the 14th. But if I dont, do you think that he will post pone my surgery. I am so scared, I have worked so hard up to this point to have it shot done because I cant keep the weight off. Ironic, huh? Well I would love any words of advise or insight. Thanks Mendy

Awww Mendy ((( Bigg Huggs ))) You have worked so hard, maybe its just some water weight gain. I know the girls that have to be on a liquid diet are losing quite a bit of weight in a week. Do you have to do one?? I only have a 1 day liquid diet, but I'm thinking of doing it for at least a few days 4-5 prior, on my own. Maybe that would help ?? Also if you are drinking caffeine, that will keep the water weight on. My nut says no sodas ( even diet ), no coffee or tea ( not even decaf.... it still has caffeine in it ). Jus****er, herbal teas, crystal light, fruit 2 O, propel. I hope that helps sum. Huggs & Blessings, Lori

Ditto what Lori said... I have been doing my all liquid diet for 3 days... Today is day 4... and iHave dropped 7.5 pounds already... It is probably mostly water weight and you can drop it easily if you increase your fluids and cut out caffeine. You will be fine.... Best of luck to you.. Shawn M.

Thanks guys... I dont really have a liquid diet prior, the day before I can have a light breakfast then clear liquids the rest of the day. So I guess I need to start the Liquids today on my own. I got some slim fast low carbs, so I will start that and see where that leaves me on Tuesday....... Thanks again and Best to luck to yall on your upcoming day.
