It will vary, but it may not be the best way to lose the weight. The milk diet is mainly for the reduction of the size of the liver ahead of surgery rather than for weightloss, you may be more successful to follow a restricted Low cal diet, with limited carbs, higher protein or following something such as slim fast for this time especially as you're not near your surgery date.

Having said that, I lost 17lbs on my milk diet ahead of surgery in 2 weeks, but am losing an average of 4lb a week now on my post op diet of 1100 cals.

hmm not a good idea having just seen the dietitian the other day i was given both themilk diet and an alternative as I may be lactose intoerant she advised for me to try them for two days only too see which was best suited as it is not suitable as a weight loss aid due to nutriention. Im with topcat strict low fat low carb diet or back on slim fast would be best option good luck. x
