take out the sugar and soda and that will help..... you might as well do it now since you cannot have it after the surgery

I was happy about the weight loss but I don't remember Dr. Dyer making a comment either way about it. He is probably use to people losing more than that. I had SO MUCH to lose that I think that is why I had good results. Yes, it was very hard, had many days of crying and missing food. I am a food addict so it was taking away my drug of choice and it was hard but it really helps prepare you for what is to come.......the liquid post op , the mushy stage and portion control. Plus , it helps with a better outcome during surgery to shrink that liver! You can do it and will be glad you did when it is over, it does go by pretty quick.  I drank a lot of broth, seems like the warm liquid helped to make me feel fuller. Good luck to you!!~ shell
