Your surgeon gave you a weight target. The sprint is the structured path to hit it.

Name: Lipoly
Brand: Lipoly

A clinically-grounded, time-limited protocol for people who need meaningful fat loss — with a specific deadline.

Medical Note

"Any pre-surgical dietary protocol should be reviewed with your surgical team and primary care physician. Rapid weight loss before surgery affects medication dosing, anaesthetic risk, and liver size — your surgical team needs to be informed and involved."

Why Pre-Surgical Weight Loss Matters

Surgeons require weight loss before bariatric and other procedures for clear clinical reasons:

Reduces liver size (hepatomegaly from fat infiltration). A smaller liver creates more surgical access and reduces operative risk significantly
Reduces overall surgical risk from obesity-related complications (DVT, wound healing, anaesthesia)
Demonstrates behavioural readiness for post-surgical dietary compliance
Some surgeons require 5–10% weight loss; others specify a maximum BMI for their technique

BMI above 40 is often an absolute contraindication; above 35 is frequently a conditional barrier
Reduced weight improves implant longevity and reduces complication rates

Reduced abdominal adiposity improves surgical access and wound healing

Why the Sprint Is Appropriate for Pre-Surgical Use

The Fat Loss Sprint is specifically suited to pre-surgical weight loss because:

1. Speed. Most surgical deadlines are 4–12 weeks. The sprint achieves 5–15 kg of weight loss in 14–28 days — faster than any gradual approach 2. Liver fat reduction. Lim et al. (2011) demonstrated liver fat normalisation within 7 days of beginning structured caloric restriction — directly relevant to bariatric pre-operative liver reduction requirements 3. Defined protocol. Surgical teams respond well to structured, documented dietary interventions. The FLS has a defined protocol with daily tracking 4. Safety profile. Built on 50+ years of PSMF clinical evidence. Endorsed by NICE, EASO, and AHA/ACC. Mandatory supplementation and 800 kcal floor

Liver Fat Reduction — The Key Pre-Bariatric Benefit

Lim et al. (2011): Liver fat normalised within 7 days of 600 kcal/day dietary restriction — independent of weight loss magnitude. This is the mechanism behind pre-bariatric liquid diet protocols. The FLS achieves the same hepatic response through its very low calorie design with the 800 kcal safety floor rather than a purely liquid replacement.

This is clinically significant: a smaller, less fatty liver is the primary goal of most pre-bariatric dietary interventions. The sprint achieves it within 1–2 weeks.

Your surgical team set the target. The sprint is the structured path to it.
