I did the six month diet, and at the end of it my BMI was 40.1. I was scheduled for the procedure, insurance has approved me, and I started my pre-op diet. With this liquid diet, I am losing weight very quickly. I've lost 18 lbs in the 6 days I've been on liquid. With my BMI already being on the cusp of 40, I'm worried now that I may lose too much weight.

My doctor's office is closed for the holiday until Tuesday. I'll call Tuesday, but I'm wondering if any of you have any experience with this?

Should my weight loss taper off?

Will a surgeon not do the procedure if my BMI drops too much during pre-op diet?
