My doctor wants a 10 day liquid pre-diet and a 30 day post-liquid then soft food diet. How much did you lose before surgery and a post diet surgery?

I had days of liquids and 2 days clear before the surgery. I also know several people who just had 2 days of clear before the surgery.  They just want you to lose some weight because it's easier for them to maneuver inside you and most importantly to reduce a fatty liver. Good luck.  I just had soups and shakes...

I had a 2 month full liquid diet. Shakes, broth, water, sf Popsicles, and sf jello. 

I lost 64lbs. I had a 3 week post op liquid diet, then soft foods, now all foods. I have lost 106lbs total and I am 7 weeks out.
