. Tell me how it's possible to gain 12 pounds in 4 days I'm so damn frustrated ugh. I eat nearly the same thing daily keeping my carbs under 20 sometimes yes I go over but never over 50. That is rare at that. Sigh but 12 pounds up in 4 days scares me. No I'm not pregnant. So today I attempted the liquid diet again. It's like the hunger has come back full force and it isn't head hunger. Hopefully a few days of liquid will shock my system. Has anyone been prescribed calorie blockers or diet pills or appetite suppressants since surgery. I know that seems odd to ask but am curious.

Are you working out ?

It has been my experience that anything gained/loss in a short period of time is Water weight. I seriously doubt you gained 12 pounds of fat in 4 days. More than likely you had something that had much more sodium in it than you knew and your body retained extra water.

Just stick with your program and watch your sodium intake. If for any reason it concerns you do see a medical professional. Best of luck!

Thank you. My body does change things. Not working out properly due to limitations

It's water. With increased heat and humidity of summer, it's easy to hold on to water. I can easily hold 4-5 pounds of water. When I was 300 pounds, it was at least 10. Try increasing your fluid intake, avoid high sodium foods (read those labels) and try to get in a little walking. Sit with your feet up when sitting.

Check the batteries in your scale. My scale has scared me a few times. Thankfully, new batteries fixed it!
