Hey sisterfunkhaus,

I was on a liquid pre-op diet for 7 days and lost 8 pounds. I lost an additional 7 pounds during the post-op diet and, although I know people are right when they say there's a lot of water weight loss which may come back when you start eating food again, it hasn't happened that way for me. I've been steadily losing in small increments since I began 'real' food again! So, definitely be happy about the liquid diet weight loss, your surgeon will be happy about it too - and there's no reason not to hope for that weight loss to be sustained post op! Here's to hoping! Cheers!

Good luck with your surgery and on your weight loss journey!

Never explain yourself.
