Water, Water, Go Away!

Ok as I stated in a prior post I have gained 6 pounds in one week and I think that I am retaining water. How can I get the water off? As I stated before I am trying not to panic, but I am beginning to get real nervous. I did not go through all of this to gain this much weight back and I still have quite a bit of weight to lose. I feel the old fat disappointment feelings coming on. I really hope someone can help me.

It was definitely Water weight. My surgeon gave me the refill for my blood pressure prescription last month and he did not add the water pill component that I was on prior. I went to my PCP and she said I definitely have to have the water pill or I will definitely retain water. So I have lost all of my water weight plus 3 pounds. :D Im back on the losing end.

That's fantastic :) It always seems much less dramatic after the problem is resolved, doesn't it?! :Pha,ha..
