    You are having surgery...you do not need to go into surgery weak, dehydrated, electrolytes off or anemic due to crash dieting. All you will lose will be water weight and a slight bit of fat. You will put yourself at a higher risk for complications or death. Eat healthy, exercise and drink lots of water. The narcotics for your hip replacement will give you constipation after surgery. If you are dehydrated prior to surgery this will worsen after surgery. If anything you want to up the fiber in your diet. Good luck...in the end if everything goes well, surgery, post op recovery and then PT to rehab your new hip....then eat healthy and diet.

    Have you been given a pre op diet?

    If so stick to your doctors reccomendation and forget about losing an arbitrary amount

    Afterwards you really need to be eating at maintenance to aid in recovery. Trying to maintain a deficit will slow down recovery as your body tries to heal itself. It needs the calories for this

    I had the flu for two weeks last year...lost a little under 10lbs during that time. It was miserable and I would NOT recommend.

    Oh man, those are two of my favorite foods, but the thought of eating them six times a day for a week makes me feel like ralphing.
