One month weight gain?



Recommended Posts

So I am doing my 6 month supervised diet. I went on vacation and gained some weight. I think I am still going to be up by a couple pounds by the time my next weigh in is. Is this going to be detrimental to me? I have lost like 3-4 pounds every month so far (this will be my 4th weigh in).

You will be fine I think. You went on vacation and you probably weren't able to exercise as much or eat as healthy. Some might be Water weight if you ate a lot of sodium. I wouldn't worry too much about it unless you need to lose a certain amount of weight.

The surgeon never said to me that I needed to lose a certain amount of weight in order to have the surgery. So I assume that I don't

I gained 2 lbs on my third month visit. I was more embarrassed than anything. The Dr. just told me to do better the next month. You should be fine. Just get back on the horse....

Thanks, I hopped back on today. Ate well, went to the gym, did cardio and the weights, and got some more activity on my Wii playing tennis. So hopefully I can be almost where I was at by my appointment, I may still be up though, but I will be closer.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
