Leave My Food ALONE!

I stopped the medicine and I thought the weight gain might stop but it has continued.

Queen,

Do you think it's all from the medicine or are you consuming more calories also? Do you still track your food?

This is a huge issue in my house. It's really frustrating.

Do you have underactive or overactive thyroid? I am hypothyroid (underactive) and take thyroid replacement, but I thought the only treatment for overactive thyroid was surgical and then you have to take thyroid replacement? (I may be wrong about that, bc I am on the other side of things). I do know that underactive thyroid means it can take longer to lose weight. Do you have a good endocrinologist specializing in thyroid issues (rather than diabetes, which a lot of them specialize in)? I would start there if you don't have one already. So sorry to hear--I know how frustrating it must be--but it sounds like there must definitely be a medical explanation and I really, really hope someone can get to the bottom of it for you. Wishing you all the best.

To stop the food thieving teenagers in my house. I used a sharpie and wrote "Gen 2:17" on the things they shouldn't eat.

"For on the day that you eat from it you will surely die" - Gen 2:17

Fear the wrath of Dad!

That is one of the best quoting scripture out of context I have seen in a long time. Love it!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
