Pain and soreness during pre op liquid diet 

Hmmm - sounds like your liver is actively de-fatting.

While I was on OptiFast, I shed enormous amounts of fat (my sweat and my pee smelled funny) so my liver was a little sore.

You've also got a gallbladder dealing with all that fat and the toxins the liver is shedding - it's probably annoyed at you too. (Located between liver and stomach along the bottom of the ribs.)

If you reach down and around the right lower edge of your ribs, you should NOT feel anything.
If you can feel anything puffy or sausage-y, that's your fatty liver.
Normal people can't feel anything there - but most of us can - pre-op of course.

Wow! Informative post!

???? Eh?

i'm soooooooooo incredibly inappropriate.

Ahahahahaha Monica.  You're too funny.  

I am in constant pain though, I talked to one of the Bariatric team members and they said they would get back to me.....

She said I should be feeling no pain from the optifast diet. Now I'm wondering if it's something else.

let us know what the clinc says

 Another thought could be pressure from the weight loss on your abdomen.

When I lost 30lbs on Atkins I noticed as my "Apron" deflated it caused pulling on my upper abdomen which was uncomfortable.  

Just a thought...
