Pre Op Liquid Diet

How much weight did you lose when you did the pre-op liquid diet?

My first week I was down 12, I haven't weighed in my 2nd week yet.  That will be Thursday....

how are you making out?

I am day 5 and down 21 pounds. That is a huge amount in 5 days and that is why I asked the question. Trying to see if that amount is normal or average?

The doc told me it should take 20-30 off pre op....  Great results!!!   Sounds about right...

Wow that's alot...that's great!!! You don't have much longer at all now...I can't wait to hear more... All the best ladies

in my two week pre-op i lost 21 pds. i thought that was alot til i saw you lost that in 5 days. holy cow!!

:)

Wow, you lost a lot of weight so far!! keep up the good work.

I guess the loss would really depend on how much  weight one would have to loose.

How are you finding the boost so far, have you been tempted to eat any solid food??

So what is your date again?

Will you be taking pics to show us some before and after.. those are really inspiring.

I have found that today was harder than the others. I know that I didn't drink enough water today and am a bit dehydrated so I don't believe that it is really hunger.  Personally I find the Boost too sweet and I am a sweet lover. I have added flavorings to the boost such as raspberry with chocolate and caramel with vanilla and lots of ice.

My surgery date is May 30th.

Where did you find the caramel and raspberry flavouring?

I got it at Liquidation World in Saint John. It was $3.50 per bottle. Starbucks sells sugar free syrups as well and they are $10-$12 dollars.

Sometimes Winners/Home Sense has them for about $7-$9.
