Who gained weight during the "mushy" stage

Did you experience weight gain during this stage? When did it turn around for you? I've noticed a 1.5lb change this week since I graduated to mushy's :tt1:

I lost a pound every day for one week straight while on the post-op liquid stage and I was so excited but not for very long I gained all 7lbs. back once I started the mushie stage and increasded my calories back to 1200 - 1500 calories. I have lost some weight since the surgery I do not have any restriction yet but I know some lose slower than others. Lisa.

I lost during both liquids and mushy stages... but less than 1/2 as much during the mushy stage-- and there was a LOT of up and down on the scale from day to day. I'd be up a pound for a few days, then down again..

So- give it time. No worries!

I gained on mushies, once I started getting fills I started losing 2 pounds a week, now as I get closer to goal I am losing .5 to 1 a week. Everything will kick in when you start getting restriction. Be sure and only eat 1 cup of food at a time, so you will be use to it when the fills start. Good luck.

I'm finishing up week 3 and have been on mushies for about two weeks now....I lost 20lbs the first week post op and then went on mushies and only lost 2lbs that week. I think alot of it had to do with the fact that I was eating Potato Soup (put through a blender) like 3 meals a day; and I went back and looked and I was taking in almost 3 times the recommended amount of sodium everyday...so I think I was retaining some water...i went back to more liquids than mushies this week and have really been monitoring my sodium intake...I weigh in on Monday and will know one way or the other if my theory is correct...I think it is because I feel and can see a difference from last week... :tt1:

i am two weeks out and started mushies on wednesday. i thought that being on mushies might slow the loss but oddly enough i have lost three pounds since wednesday. i dunno if this is just a fluke or if it will continue but i sure hope it does. i've been getting alot of Protein in though. doing lots of scrambled eggs and pureed meats. not sure if that would make a difference, but it might.

I am worried about gaining on the mushie stage as I am only getting about 200cals a day at the moment. So surely it must go up when that increases? But hopefully I will be able to exercise by then so maybe that will help.
