shayfeisty 27 Posted July 5, 2015 HEY EVERYONE! I started my journey June 1 and was on liquid diet until day of surgery which was June 24. I lost 28 pounds during that time and since surgery I have lost 13 pounds (I'm 11 days post op). The first couple of days the Water I retained from IV fluids flew off and I lost about 6 additional pounds in 2 days. After that I had a 3 pound loss then a 2 pound loss and continued until I was losing about a pound. Yesterday I was switched to mushy food and I had my regular Protein Shake, water, a bite or two of plain avocado. A tiny piece of mozzarella cheese, water, Gatorade, water an oz of yogurt, water, and another piece of cheese. And then water and my Vitamins in the evening. I weighed myself this morning and I didn't lose anything, I actually gained 3 oz. Did I eat too much yesterday? What is going on?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
no onions 258 Posted July 5, 2015 It sounds like you're doing great - congrats! My recommendation is to stop weighing daily, lest you become obsessed with minor fluctuations. For all anyone knows you peed less or something. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AngelaWilliamsMD 290 Posted July 5, 2015 I agree with No Onions, that small of a gain is almost always due to normal physiological changes. However, I do weigh everyday. I know many people frown on this practice, but it helps prevent any surprises! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
