I'm back after having major heart surgery last week. I won't be trying to diet for a while until I build my strength up but I thought I'd share something. I completely lost my appetite and have hardly eaten anything for the last six days. I came home yesterday and weighed myself this morning. I only lost three pounds which proves that very low calorie diets don't work 😄

Get well soon Sue, and please take good care of yourself 😊 We will still be here when you feel ready to return
Glad everything's gone ok for you Sue and good luck with your recovery.
At the risk of sounding contrary, at a basic level the maths goes something like this...
To burn 3lbs takes 10,500 cals. Over 6 days that's a deficit requirement of 1750 cals per day. Assuming you weren't in that much deficit then some of the loss could be explained by a loss of water.
I was probably having less than 500 calories a day as I just couldn't face food. Mainly I ate jelly!
Hey, at least your sense of humour is still intact after going through that ordeal
Best wishes for a quick and full recovery.
Steer clear of the diets sue2002 and get back to healthy eating as soon as you can
Take care of yourself
Happy to hear you're on the road to recovery. Take care💐
Get well sue
Wishing you all the very best with your recovery Take lots of care x
