Hi I cannot remember sorry I am almost 3 yrs post op. Had mine 20th August 2011. Good luck with everything you will be just fine its not as bad as you think diet or op. Stay positive and focussed and all will be well. x
I managed to lose bout 11lb but its not really about losing the weight its shrinking your liver enough for them to be able to get to the parts they need to by doing key hole surgery quicker recovery having key hole its amazing what they can do. x

Yes, or I just used fresh stock from the supermarkets. x

Brilliant thanks. I sort of relaxed when new I was finally on list and I went and got weighed and I'm 1 stone 3lb heavier than last weigh in at hosp. I've just read on some posts some ppl actually either stayed the same or put on weight on the pre op diet so am hoping that's not the case as surgeon told me I had to be same weight or below on day of op

DIG DEEP AND STICK WITH IT, you can do this, you have to if you want to have the op. xx

Aw I'm defo sticking to it I'm not due to start pre op till tomorow however I've been on it since Friday to try and help me along. I would be absolutely gutted if I missed this opportunity I've waited 18months for for the sake of a few lbs when I've lost over four stone

I drank low fat cuppa soups on my pre opp diet and that seemed to work. I had my opp 4 weeks ago at sunderland. Good luck!

I had the mini bypass ( loop) I lost just over a stone on the milk diet which got me down to my target weight on my scales but I was 2lb over on hospital scales but they were ok with that.

It's been ok really the recovery was quite speedy after. I've lost just over 2 stone in 4 weeks so its been worth it. You will get down to ur target weight don't worry you will be fine xx
