Do you gain weight after 2 week liquid diet



Recommended Posts

My question is I am on my 2 week post op liquid diet until I get to mushie foods, do you gain weight when moving to mushie/regular foods? I'm just curious cause right now I'm getting 1 1/2 to 2 Protein Shakes in a day so going from that regular food you must gain a little weight?

I did not gain when moving to the "mushie foods." I was careful with my portions. That part went great. Just follow your plan.

No, You may see a Water weight gain throughout your journey but

In order for you to gain weight from fat you will have to eat extremely off your plan and way over your calorie intake.

Which is actually physically impossible until you are fully healed. And even then, it would be hard to eat enough to actually gain legitimate weight until you're many, many months out.

You're going to stall in your weight loss, and yes, sometimes a gain will happen when you stall. Happened to me every time right before a stall. It all has to do with glycogen and Water storage this early out, and absolutely nothing to do with what you're eating.

There. Now you won't fret when it happens, right? ;)

No the calories consumed are still much to low to make you gain weight.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
