intelirish 714 Posted September 30, 2013 I know right now i shouldn't be too concerned or worried about where the number on the scale is especially considering i'm not even 2wks post op yet.. BUT... i started eating mushes this weekend and have been in heaven with the scrambled eggs, cauliflower etc etc but this morning show'd that i had actually gained weight. Firstly i was shocked at how much that gain affected me all i wanted to do was to climb back into bed and hide. i'm sure i'm not alone and this weight fluctuation is perfectly normal as my body adjusts but it was still quite shocking to see a number i was never expecting....

Zingythingy 210 Posted September 30, 2013 Don't panic some will be Fluid, some will be glycogen stores as you did hellish pre op diet. Its quite common to gain at this stage (so I've read) mushies seem reasonably calorific.. Get healed first then watch those scales go down....

kshannon 69 Posted October 1, 2013 Same thing is happening to me (11 days post op)- I'm trying to ignore that part & listen everyone's advice. This is a time for healing & I also remind myself that I have lost 11 inches & that hasn't fluctuated ... Hang in there, I feel your distress Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
