Do you gain weight after 2 week liquid diet



Recommended Posts

My question is I am on my 2 week post op liquid diet until I get to mushie foods, do you gain weight when moving to mushie/regular foods? I'm just curious cause right now I'm getting 1 1/2 to 2 Protein Shakes in a day so going from that regular food you must gain a little weight?

I did not gain when moving to the "mushie foods." I was careful with my portions. That part went great. Just follow your plan.

No, You may see a Water weight gain throughout your journey but

In order for you to gain weight from fat you will have to eat extremely off your plan and way over your calorie intake.

Which is actually physically impossible until you are fully healed. And even then, it would be hard to eat enough to actually gain legitimate weight until you're many, many months out.

You're going to stall in your weight loss, and yes, sometimes a gain will happen when you stall. Happened to me every time right before a stall. It all has to do with glycogen and Water storage this early out, and absolutely nothing to do with what you're eating.

There. Now you won't fret when it happens, right? ;)

No the calories consumed are still much to low to make you gain weight.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
