Are you about to get your period? Are you retaining Water? I go up and down a few pounds constantly. Don't worry about the scale, take your measurents. They are more accurate.

I think that is what it is cause I am going to get my period like in 2 days

Then most likely it is bloating and Water retention. Don't worry, it will go away after your period along with a few more.

You could also be still in the throes of the inevitable 3 week stall. You're a month out, but you could have started the stall at 3 weeks out. Mine lasted about a week and a half. That could be why, as well. :)

A 2 pound gain is nothing. You could be retaining Fluid because of TOM or just because. Especially when you're being weighed with clothes on, it's tough to get an accurate weight. Maybe you have on heavier clothing or jewelry. I don't really worry about what the scale says at the doctor's office, except for my WLS surgeon because he has a fancy dancy scale that measures body fat, too. I like my pulmonologist's scale, though. His always weighs me a couple of pounds less than I really weigh! LOL

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
