  1. Gaining weight back! Help!

    tickled2lose replied to Hopes of a Dream!'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I was banded just a week ago..while I am no expert and I am sure you will get many good replies, what I have read (in the info provided by my doctor) is not to worry so much about the weight loss in this phase until you are filled. Because you are adjusting and the food you are eating is slider food...mushy...and so it is not gonna stick. You also may have gained some weight due to the fluids given when banded. Don't be alarmed yet and you have not fallen off the wagon. Wait till you are full (fluid added to band) and then you will feel fuller by the limited food intake. Then you will see the weight loss. Hang in there!! I can't wait to be 3 weeks out. You are on your way to success!
