sngbrd1003 0 Posted March 31, 2007 Hi, I had my surgery March 9, 2007. I lost 15lbs. since then but I have gained 2lbs. Since beginning mushies and partly solids. I am following the plan. Has anyone else experienced this? Could it just be a fluke and it will come right off or do I need to worry? Thanks. Lisa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReneBean 3 Posted March 31, 2007 You have several feet of intenstinal tract that were mostly empty while you were on liquids. Once you start eating food again, those several feet fill up - they are not normally ever empty - so those are the pounds you have gained. Think about how much 8 feet of sausage might weigh... Don't panic. Its normal. Good luck on the rest of your journey. Hugs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annieM 2 Posted March 31, 2007 Remember too that you are in the healing phase. You won't have restriction of your food intake until you start having "fills". That is when you will start to have steady losses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterlily1072 5 Posted March 31, 2007 And mushies tend to be very high in calories. Many people gain during the healing phase it's ok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
