I am fairly new into the process. I have completed my psych eval and will be doing my EGD on Wednesday. Ever since my first appointment, I have eaten well and exercised due to my doctor telling me that he wants me to stay the same weight or lose weight. Well I weighed myself this morning and I have GAINED 7 pounds since seeing my doctor last and i do not know why! I am freaking out that when I see him on Wednesday, he will tell me I cannot have the surgery. Anyone deal with something like this and what was the outcome?? Thank you all in advance!!!

Are you doing 6 months of weigh-ins? If this isn't a pattern they might be more understanding. It might be water. If you are female it could be cycle related. Exercise can also make you retain water. Eat lightly over the next two days, avoid carbs and salt. You might be able to take off at least 3 of those pounds, and they are likely to be more understanding about 4lbs. than 7. Your home scale might be off as well.
