Am I eating too few calories???
I just finished my full liquids diet and tho I did not track all my calories, I knew I was taking in far less than 2000 a day and lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks. I actually did not suffer at all in energy, in fact I had more of it because I was shedding weight. I felt pretty good considering. You are pre-op and tho I don't know if yo are on liquids only or what but I don't see how a pre-op patient can exist on 5-800 calories a day. Post op, yes. Pre-op, it seems drastic but if your doctor said to do it, I would stick with it. It is only a short time right?
