I have not been one to live and die by the red numbers on my scale, however, I was banded on 11/7 and I am rather depressed today.
Preop I chose to do a liquid diet with clear liquids for the last 2 days. This wasnt required by my physician, However, i thought it prudent to get used to the lifestyle immediately post op.
I went in for my 1 week follow up last Thursday and i was down 10 lbs. I started full liquid on Saturday and in these 3 days, I have managed to put 10 lbs back on. :faint:
I haven't even consumed 1000 calories on any given day. Low fat cream Soup and the occasional nonfat-splenda yogurt.
Only difference is, I usually weigh myself in the mornings, today I did it at 5 PM.
I may have been dehydrated when I visited my doc as well.
Any advice on what I am doing wrong? Has anyone else put weight back on after the clear liquid phase?
