On my 3rd week



Recommended Posts

On my liquid phase I lost about 16 pounds. I'm on my 3rd week (mushy foods) and after going from the liquid stage to the mushy foods I went up about 4 pounds. On liquids I was on about 300 to 400 calories a day to now about 700 - 1,000 per day. Why the weight gain if the calories are still low (under 1200)?

When does the weight start coming off at a normal rate of 1 to 2 pounds a week? Once I start regular food and go to maybe 1200 will I gain all my weight back?

Please let me know if this is typical in the beginning?

Thanks,

The first 6 weeks aren't about losing weight...they are about healing. I keep hearing from everyone that any weight loss prior to a fill is a bonus. And you have a few weeks to go before you get a fill, so don't worry. Just try to eat your Protein and veggies and let your body recuperate. It will come!
