How much has everyone lost pre-op I have my surgery on Monday...I am on day 15 pre-op...I have only lost 4 pounds...granted I fell off the wagon a few times...but nothing huge... My cheats were chili from Wendy's and refried beans when having fajita meat from a Mexican restaurant. I'm wondering if this is going to screw me up for Wednesday?!? Today Saturday and Sunday I'm going to do see straight protein shakes/all liquid and pray things go ok
