So I have now been able to eat solids for two days and already I have gained back two pounds I am so upset. I dont even go for my first fill till june 4th by then I will gain everything back how do I keep it off do I stay on a liquid diet?:sad_smile:

I am not sure about your monthly cycle . . . but for me I automatically gain 2-3 pound within 1 day during a certain time of the month. When it is over after a few days I am back to normal or even a little less.

It is hard to lose during the period when you are on solid foods but before you get your first fill. You will be hungry but you just have to be diligent about calories and quantities. For me, I only managed not to gain during this period and I wasnt losing until I got a fill.

In order to gain 2 pounds of body fat you need to consume just over 7000 calories in excess of what you burn.

The weight gain is likely due to glycogen stores rebuilding (what your liver stores for fuel - this can weigh up to 6 pounds) as well as the weight of the food in your body.

Unless you are consuming excess calories you are not buring, I don't think you should be concerned or obsess.
