5days and counting!

5 days until my surgery! Pre-op diet stall???? I haven't lost anymore weight since Monday. Optifast and water only everyday. Still nothing. I pray I don't go through all of this for nothing! What if I go through all of this and don't lose weight? My dr. during my psy appointment asked me how I would feel if that happened....I gave him an answer but didn't think it actually would! Could my body be in shock from the optifast diet?

Do you think your doctor would NOT do the surgery if you didn't lose more?  I'm not following you.  What surgery are you having?  I think doctors make patients fearful when they expect their patients to lose weight before surgery.  I know some insurance companies require it.  Is that your case?  So what does your psych doctor say about your errrr emotional stability?  Do you think you can handle plateaus?  That is something that does happen periodically during your journey.  It is normal, but some patients freak out when it happens.  We don't know how our bodies will react to the surgery.  We don't know if we will be a slow loser or fast loser until we experience it.  Both of these are normal as well.  I don't know if I am helping you any but you need to be sure you can handle however way your body reacts.
