A four pound fluctuation is probably just Water weight- have you had a lot of carbs or salt lately? TOM? I would go super low carb ( less than 50) and low sodium for the next couple days- maybe even take a diurex OTC if you feel comfortable with that. Exercise enough to sweat it out. Wear your lightest clothes to the weigh in and if it is early enough in the day, don't eat or drink before. You should lose those couple of pounds

Alot of the foods i do have have some salt in them, ive been craving pickles and those are chalk ful of sodium. I take a Water pill but its almost as if i have to double up so it can properly do its job

no need to double up. Just stay on top of the recommended doses. It will take a day or so to kick in.

@@loca_lette813 I wouldn't worry just yet. It could definitely *just* be Water retention. Are you due for your period? I had a hysterectomy, buy during that time of the month, I was always 5-8 lbs heavier. It's insane what our bodies go through! Always remember to weigh yourself on the same scale and same time of the day too!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
