Up 1 Pound on Day 12 Liquid Pre-Op and OK with that - For Those Who Worry About This

Hi Everyone

Today is Day 12 of my All Liquid Pre-Op diet and I'm up one pound. I've seen posts here where people get worried and upset when this happens. I'm here to tell you it's OK. I'm ok with it. I was feeling very weak and lightheaded yesterday. I drank my last protein drink rather late (10pm) and finished off the night with 2 sugar free popsicles at midnight. So the fact that I was up 1 pound today doesn't alarm me. Go easy on yourself. The willpower we have found to do this is astonishing. Not sustainable (which is why I'm getting the band, but astonishing nonetheless). The little fluctuations can be frustrating and perplexing and unexplainable but not failure. I just wanted to let everyone know where my head is in case you go through whai I consider to be a normal fluctuation when you weigh yourself every day...and I know that isn't suggested but it's informative and often times encouraging). So keep up the good work and know this is just the beginning of something great.
