Gained 14lbs at 5 weeks post op..what am I doing wrong
sleeviewonder2021 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all! I’m in a bit of a panic, I’m 5 weeks post op, my starting weight was 274lbs. My op weight was 268lbs. At 3weeks post op my weight was 236lbs and somehow my weight since I started purées then eventually solids has been on a steady incline(I’m now at 250lbs🥺) . It’s really disheartening. I’m honestly not sure if I’m not eating properly or whether something else might be wrong. I did have my TOM mid week 4 so I thought it might be hormonal and that I’m retaining water but nothing seems to be changing. I drink 2.5l of water a day . I eat less than 700cal a day. I get 70g of protein in , 15g of carbs and about 10g of fat in total a day. Do I have my quantities wrong? My nutritionist hasn’t been very helpful. Please can someone offer some advice.- 2 replies
