restriction & weather changes



Recommended Posts

Has anyone experienced increased restriction with changes in the weather? I can't eat when it rains.

It rained 4 days in the beginning of month and I had difficulty eating but I blew it off thinking it was from the fill I had on 8/25.

Well, it's raining again today and I can't eat. I pb'd on 2 bites of scrambled egg this morning, tried a turkey/cheese roll-up for lunch-no go!!

Is this all in my head?

Hi Mary,

I've heard all sorts of theories for why restriction changes, and weather is certainly one of them. One person mentioned being tighter in the desert, while another talked about the changes in restriction as she traveled from sea level to a mountain. It's rampant!

My theory is that it's not the band changing at all...it's you. Our bodies are something like 70% Water and what's not Water is soft, mostly. Our internal organs are probably always shifting slightly in size, thickness, position, whatever depending on how our bodies react to stimuli, like hormones, atmospheric pressure, whether our team wins the Super Bowl.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
