You might try the Isagenix nutritional cleansing and fat burning program.  The average loss is 7 pounds on the 9 day program.

Hi Shug -  Is your surgeon putting you on a pre-op liquid diet?  I had to do 2 weeks on all liquids just before surgery and lost 15 pounds.   So you may consider doing 3 protein shakes per day and a light dinner of lean protein and steamed veggies.  Definitely check with your nutritionist before you try something like this though.  If your surgeon didn't give you any advice at all on how to go about losing the weight before surgery, call and ask them for help -- you're paying them for this type of stuff.  Pam

I lost 17 lbs in a month before my surgery. I drank protein drinks and one meal a day. I was very motivated because they were not going to approve my surgery. Otherwise I'm not sure I could have done it for much longer.

Best of luck.
