well my pre-op diet starts tomorrow, i will get my date on the 22nd feb and all i know is that i will be sleeved by the end of march. i am doing exante meal replacements, has anyone else done this as a pre op... i am hoping that i lose a good amount over the next few weeks as i am not telling people i am having a sleeve at the same time i have my gallbladder removed... and i plan on telling people that i am losing weight with a meal replacement diet and then by the time i start eating again no body will be any the wiser. i had a gastric band a few years back and i cant be bothered explaining myself again. sorry for the ramble just wondering how much people tended to lose on their pre op
