gained 3 pounds...very discouraged

Was feeling very week im on day 24 post-op and felt like fainting on Monday when I started back to work. My Nut said I wasnt getting enough calories that he didnt want me counting carbs , calories nothing. He said he wanted me eating cream soups, protein drinks anything to stay hydrated. Ok, I did this and I gained 3 pounds in 3 days. I am suppossed to start soft foods next week. I just feel like this isnt working:(

No! What's PB2? Do tell!

It's basically dehydrated peanuts. It's Peanut Butter in powder form. You mix it with Water and you have instant peanut butter. It has about 1/4 the calories of regular peanut butter, and a much better nutritional ratio than low fat peanut butter. For me, the best part is you have to mix it up. A regular jar of peanut butter is too tempting for me and too easy to just grab a spoon and have at it.

Where do you buy this? Sounds great.

Gaining is ok because it tells you that you're not giving your body what it needs. Try some protein and more water. You may even need to up your calories. Same thing happen to me, two days after my protein increase I lost 3 pounds. Try something different it what your doing isn't working. The weight will come off.
