Pre-Op Liquid Weight Gain?



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I am 5 days into my 8 day diet and I lost 17 lbs so far but this morning I gained one pound. I have remained faithful to a tee on the diet.

Is this happening elsewhere??

Forgive my vulgarity but I haven't been using the restroom, perhaps in need of a laxative?

You can loose and gain as much as 5lbs in a day . I would suggest not weighting your self but weekly right now .

I had my surgery on 11-14 an weighted myself daily at first, But once the loosing stopped I stopped weighting, its too frustrating . But its normal to lose and gain more than you think . The pre op diet is more about shrinking your liver more than anything, so just keep what your doing .

Yeah I would say that this is just Water weight gain / not "fat" gain. no worries. I give you props for sticking to the liquid diet to a T! I wasn't able to !

Oh thank you, ladies. I loathe every minute of it. I can't stand how the Protein Shakes taste and everything including Water tastes awful now. The worst part is just feeling immense hunger. Xanax has been my best friend. I want to cheat but I'm afraid they'll open up and see. I'm a weirdo lol

      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! 😞
