Hello everyone!

I had surgery 12/21 and weighed 344 so far as of date I have lost a total of 34 lbs but its 30 overall because for some odd reason I keep gaining 3-4 lbs. I exercise daily for 30 mins or more and just started recently including strength training for toning. I had my first fill 1/21 and he advised I only had a 2.6 cc fill. I have noticed a marked increase in my appetite and of course no weight loss but that pesky 3 lbs ill lose and then gain right back. I weighed 312.2 and by Wednesday Of the next week weighed 315.5. And then ill lose 1 lb then gain 1 lb and so on and so on.

Did anyone encounter a similar problem? Any advise or concerns are welcomed.

If you are tracking calories and measuring portions and sticking to 1000 to 1200 calories each day the loss will come... Sometimes the body needs to take time to adjust. Also women will notice during their cycle that we sometimes show a gain so as long as you are doing everything right just hang in there...it will come off.

Best of luck!!

Thank you. Actually I'm doing 1500 calories a day. I never meet the caloric intake. I'm usually below it by 400-700 calories.

I don't have regular cycles and I was really hoping that was the issue. I still get the symptoms without the rest. I'm still holding on. Thank you for responding to my post!!

I found if I dropped below 1000 I wouldn't lose that day... I have no idea why but it seemed to work out that way. Maybe do your best to try to get in at least 1000 and see if that helps. And don't forget the Water....it's very important
