emtstacey76 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I'm leaving in the orning but only have lost 3lbs, I have been faithful to my pre-op but worried they won't band me?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tadpole Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I was worried about the same thing as I didn't meet my goal and Dr. Miranda didn't say anything to me about it. I wouldn't worry about it. You did your best and that is all they can expect. The main reason they want you to loose the weight is so your liver is in better shape for the surgery. See you on the other side. Hugs Trudy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Congratulations!! Wow that came up quickly!! Don't stress about the weight loss...my patient co-ordinator told me that the pre-op diet is designed to reduce the liver and not to focus on the scale. It is possible for your liver to be reduced of fat and the scale not show it. Best of luck and let us know how everything goes!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julieburns Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 The previous posters have mentioned the thing about the liver. Don't worry about not losing the weight, just stress how you followed the eating plan without deviation. I'm excited for you and this wonderful journey you are about to begin. Blessings to you!!

emtstacey76 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I am so excited I cry at any little thing, it has been a stressful week around my house with my sons baseball. I have been telling a lot more people what I'm doing than I planned on because they know I have been struggling and are really happy for me!
