WTH? On pre-op diet and hit plateau?
I'm on day8 of my pre-op diet and day's 1 - 5 lost about 2 pounds a day. I haven't done anything different, haven't cheated...and the last 3 days I went up a pound, back down that pound, and now up a 1/2 pound. GRRR. I'm only taking in around 500 calories IF THAT.....
did anyone else experience this during thier pre-op diet?

That's just normal weight loss. It's how it works. You might find it less frustrated if you don't get on the scale every day.

I am on day 10 of the Optifast pre-op diet and lost 11lbs up until this morning when I got on the scale and it was up 2lbs. I have been following Optifast to the letter so I am not going to stress over it. I'm doing everything I'm supposed to to make sure surgery will go smoothly so whatever happens with my weight is secondary at this point.
You sound like your doing great so try not to stress, we work hard but sometimes our bodies do their own thing.
Good luck on your surgery and best wishes for a speedy recovery!
