Weight Gain 12 days out?



Recommended Posts

I jumped on the scale yesterday morning and it said 226.6, and now this morning it's saying 229.9! I was completely shocked and frustrated! I have no idea why Or how I could gain 3.3lbs overnight but I am not happy! I even went to the gym yesterday and did 30 minutes on the treadmill (Dr Approved Treadmill only). Has anyone else experienced this? I know that my weight is going to fluctuate, but 3.3 lbs really? I can deal with 1-2lbs but not almost 4!

It is Water weight. Your body is still healing and adjusting. Perhaps it is protecting itself a little due to the workout. Keep following your plan.

Thanks! That makes me feel a little better! I was up to 18lbs and wanted to hit 20lbs before my 2 week appt, but now im set back to 15lbs!

It will go away in a day or two once your body realizes it doesn't need it. My body is the queen of Water retention. Try drinking more water then you normally do and see if that helps.

You shouldn't be weighing yourself everyday, that is extremely unhealthy. Try once a week at the same time to truly track your progress, or go by how your clothes fit.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
