Weight gain over night



Recommended Posts

Hey Matt, it was yesterday morning, today it said 311 which is still up 2 pounds. I should see if it does body fat, I haven’t even checked for that.

Yeah! Head my warning! Generally I have been following my diet really well and intend to. Maybe I’m having hormonal fluctuations or something as well, who knows! 🤷‍♀️

I always "gain" a few pounds during that time of the month. So I know its possible for hormones to affect it.

The other diuretic I'm on has potassium in it. So, I'm good.

Speaking of the 45 minute thing - The doctor injected the lasix directly into my vein because the oral meds weren't having enough of an effect. Then I drove to work. About 20 minutes after the injection, I ended up in the mother of all traffic jams. I was praying "Please, God, just let me make it to the next exit. Don't make me pee in the middle lane of the interstate!" God was kind and I made it to the next exit and there was even a gas station there! I could hardly walk in, in needed to pee so bad!

Oh NO!!!!! haha I know that feeling, but I was just worried about the 20ft walk to the restroom, not on an insterstate, OMG!

It becomes a "lesser of 2 evils" thing. In my case, the cardiologist thinks there is Fluid around my lungs and it needs to be reduced. The surgeon said the diuretics are fine so long as I continue to drink plenty of liquid, which has never been an issue for me.

Gotcha! Hope that gets better!

      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!!
