Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

So, have any of you had bloating related to pms since surgery? Yesterday I was very very umm, angry? Emotional? Pms-ing! Lol. Anyways, today I am uncomfortable with this damn bloat! Wondering if anyone else had this and felt more uncomfortable than usual after the surgery? Also, everyone please take a moment to say a prayer, send out positive vibes, whatever your thing is for Simply Southern if you haven't already. I'm so worried about her and I've been praying and thinking of her all morning. I hope we hear something soon.

Still not losing weight. Gained 5 pounds while I was getting dehydrated. Dr said it was my body trying to retain what fluids it could. Then lost 2 after not being dehydrated anymore. Weighed this morning to find out I've gained the two back, stopped weighing everyday cuz it's just so disappointing. I'm about ready to throw the scale out the window. i walk about 40 minutes each day and just don't know wth is going on. I'm getting fluids and protein. Any ideas or similar experiences?

Maybe your weight gain is due to your period coming too? I was losing quite quickly but the last time I weighed I gained 2 lbs and it's the same today. Bet when Aunt Flo comes it'll go away! At least I hope!! I HATE Aunt Flo!! Lol.

I'm about ready to eat something I'm not supposed to just to see what happens

I think your body will fight the process for a bit. It is holding onto whatever it can. Don't worry, I am sure the weight will start coming off. I decided to weigh only on Fridays because the day to day is up and down so much. It's hard to wait a week, but I think it gives better accuracy at where you are at. Good Luck. Don't be discouraged!! You got this!
