Small Set back I hope..

Hey Guys I just need support :thumbdown: I went to my Drs office on Thursday because for a couple of weeks I had really bad acid reflux all of a sudden.. I had my fill on 04/15 and was fine until just recent.. anyway he said he thought I was ok and he ordered an upper GI for me, and prescribed me Proilosac, and told me he was on vacation all this week so no rush for the upper GI because I was able to eat and drink ok.. well go figure come friday night I was unable to eat or drink, hold any liquid down or food, I went to the ER because I knew I was dehydrated and they treated me for GERD and gave me fluids thru an IV.. I thought I was fine on sunday I felt a little better and then sunday night it started again could not keep any fluids down or food.. went back to the ER on monday where they rehydrated me and took out .75 of the fluid:thumbdown: now I am so worried I am going to gain weight again.. the dr told me to give it about 2 weeks and then I can get a small fill and we will go from there but I am so close to my goal I am at 185 and my goal is 175 has anyone else been in this situation and can offer reassurance I am so sad and worried!

Thanks

This does sound like just a small set back.

Like you, I'm so close to my goal.

I recently gained some weight (long trip away from home..blah blah blah..excuses, excuses) and have been feeling just terrible about it. But the reality of the situation is that this is not a sprint to the finish line. I'm in this for life and if I have one bad month, it's going to be ok.

Unlike me, the set-back you're experiencing is no fault of your own. Try to watch what you're eating during these next couple of weeks - give your stomach a bit of a rest - and then get that fill and be back on track.

I feel so certain that this is a momentary blip for you.
