I had surgery on April 16th. I lost 11 lbs pre-op and 13 lbs two weeks after. I started the mushie stage and my weight stood pretty still and now that I started solids (a week ago) I've gained 7 lbs. I haven't had a fill yet, my first one is this Tuesday so I understand I don't have much restriction yet (if any) but I'm super frustrated and afraid my surgeon will get mad. My food choices have changed drastically.. All I have had to drink since surgery is water, I don't eat white bread (still eat whole wheat), every meat I eat is either grilled or baked. I'm eating so much better but it takes a lot before I'm full. In my papers it says to eat a cup of food but I'm eating more than that. I can see gaining a couple of pounds but 7 pounds has me worried since thats a pound a day! I've been good at not drinking with meals. Will this first fill help?

Everyone has good suggestions. I would also make sure you journal everything you eat. I use my fitness pal & it makes a huge difference when I see what I'm eating & how many cal, pro, carb, fat, etc things are. I shoot for high pro, low sugar, fat & fairly low carbs -- but that works for me. All the best!

I do keep a food diary, so I know what I am eating, but it doesn't take many calories for me to put on weight.
