I was down 7 pounds from my last fill in March. I had good restriction. Then.....I went to a party Saturday and Easter dinner on Sunday. I gained it ALL back from Friday morning. How is that possible? Did I over-indulge? YES! but 7 pounds worth? In 3 days? I am sooooooo mad. My weigh in is Thursday.I should have weighed in last Thursday, but they were closed for Holiday. AARRGH!

That sounds very strange. Are you expecting TOM to arrive? Did you keep track of calories you took in? Did you weigh in first thing this morning?

I just don't know how a swing like that is possible, unless there is something making you retain liquid, like TOM. I am looking forward to reading what everyone else thinks. Very odd.

Did you eat a lot of salt filled Snacks, and Ham has lots of sodium. Sound like Water weight. Flush it out. Drink, Drink, Drink lots of Water. (be near a bathroom). The water will flush out the sodium and the weight will disappear.

A lot was salty: hot finger foods, ham for Easter, regular cheese, etc. I know it is not TOM. (Don't have that due to Birth control) I have been drinking, but will step it up.

I weighed myself Friday morning and was 252. I have been trying so hard to get to 249 as that will make 40 lbs and put me below 250 for the first time in 10 years. I was so excited to be so close. Last night and this morning I was 259 again. Really being extra diligent today and will keep drinking and drinking. I am on a steroid inhaler again this week due to bronchitis that will not go a way! That may be part of it too.

TX for the responses.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
