I was doing sooooo good by week 3 I was down 20 pounds and I was sooooo HAPPY. and now I got on the scale and BAM I gained 4 pounds like WTF?? :/ Im scared has anyone else gone through this? I really need hope.

Your prob just fluctuating because of your TOM. I know I can easily fluctuate 5 pounds I the same day period or not. I wouldn't stress it to much at this point. If you continue to see the scale go up, then talk to your doctor or nut.

If you do not plan on having kids I would suggest the Novassure (not sure of spelling) ablasion. No more periods is awesome!

the reason why I had this surgery is so I can lose weight and my chances of being a mother can increase. I have PCOS and I can't get pregnant. So Dr recommended me this surgery. ;-) thanks though

I too have PCOS please don't stress and try to stay off the scale. Especially if it is that time. Remember that part of this surgery is hormonal which has probably thrown your PCOS into overdrive. I am sure the further out you get the more regular you will be. Also remember as you drop weight it can effect cycles so imagine what it does with someone who has cycle issues. Good luck and keep your chin up!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
