Pre-Op Liquid Weight Gain?

[previouslyplump 4]

Hi all, I am 5 days into my 8 day diet and I lost 17 lbs so far but this morning I gained one pound. I have remained faithful to a tee on the diet.

Is this happening elsewhere??

Forgive my vulgarity but I haven't been using the restroom, perhaps in need of a laxative?

You can loose and gain as much as 5lbs in a day . I would suggest not weighting your self but weekly right now .

I had my surgery on 11-14 an weighted myself daily at first, But once the loosing stopped I stopped weighting, its too frustrating . But its normal to lose and gain more than you think . The pre op diet is more about shrinking your liver more than anything, so just keep what your doing .

Yeah I would say that this is just Water weight gain / not "fat" gain. no worries. I give you props for sticking to the liquid diet to a T! I wasn't able to !

Oh thank you, ladies. I loathe every minute of it. I can't stand how the Protein Shakes taste and everything including Water tastes awful now. The worst part is just feeling immense hunger. Xanax has been my best friend. I want to cheat but I'm afraid they'll open up and see. I'm a weirdo lol
