How much weight did you lose prior to WLS?

I lost 33 pounds before my surgery, but wasn't told I had to lose any specific amount prior to having the surgery.

I lost 30lbs 2 weeks prior to shrink my liver

Zero pounds.   I saw 464 on the scale and since I was paying cash for the surgey I told them to schedule me ASAP.  And they did...  I had surgery the next week.

All my Dr asked was I didn't gain anymore. I did end up losing 28 Lbs pre-op just following a senbile plan that elimintaed candy sodas and bread from my diet and of course a 4 day liquid diet, lost 11Lbs on that.

I lost 11, gained back 5 then lost 22 on the 14 day liver shrinking diet. Heck, I was doing better on that. In 23 days post surgery I've "only" lost 22 lbs. I still think I'm probably eating too much.

Sorry, but you worded your question wrong. It should read "How much weight did you GAIN before WLS?  I gained weight before surgery and was at my all time high on the operating table. I'm below goal and have been there for about 4 months.
