I was at my highest weight for the year or so leading up to surgery.  I lost 10 pounds in the one-week preop diet.  I did 3-5 high-protein low-carb shakes per day along with all the low calorie liquids I wanted.

 

5'5"    Goal reached, but fighting regain.  Back to Basics.
Start Weight 246    Goal Weight 160    Current Weight 183

Starting size: 22, 2x
Current size: 12, L

 I lost appx 30 lbs before surgery (over 6 months)...I had a long wait due to insurance denials/appeals.

 Just about 15 now, with 5 more full days of the pre-op diet before surgery. I've hit a little bit of a plateau either due to my body adjusting to this, or my superb lil monthly friend preparing to make an appearance this weekend.

I lost 25 altogether. I lost 9 pounds prior to seeing the surgeon, then he wanted another 14 off before seeing me again. After that he still wanted another 5 pounds for surgery, but settled for the 2 I lost just prior to being sleeved. Made my surgery weight by the skin of my teeth. No liquid pre op diet (except for the day before VSG). Did it with food.

 I have worried about not making weight the whole way through... still a little worried!
