weight gain in 3 days

[orionburn 1,024]

And people are supposed to do what with that wealth of information?

If this is the typical post-op freak out it is typical to actually end up weighing more after surgery because of all the fluids you've been pumped up with.

It would be nice if you would have posted more than just "Weight Gain in 3 Days". That doesn't mean much to anyone. Are you pre-op or Post-op? what was your weight when you started, what is it now. What diet are you on?

I have been at the same weight for more than a month now. I have had sinus issues, on meds for that and I am sure they cause weight gain. I am off the meds now and the sinuses are mostly clear so I am hopeful I can start losing again. It can be a slow process, I have learned patience through all this.

I would recommend only weighing once a week (or even less frequent). Your weight can fluctuate a lot day to day due to Water, poo, food you eat, clothing you're wearing, hormones and a lot of other random stuff. Heck - my weight can easily be 3lbs higher morning vs. evening and the week of my period it's always around 4 lbs higher. It is next to impossible to actually gain 6 lbs of fat in 3 days. You would have had to eat almost 21,000 excess calories (1lb = 3500 calories). I would suggest picking one consistent day/time/location and clothes and do that same thing every week. Even with that I sometimes have weeks where I'm a little bit up but it always comes right back off a week or so later. Best of luck to you!

Exactly! Perfectly said. In fact, as gross as this is... I know I've lost 3lbs after I was backed up for a few days! I wouldn't be concerned unless you retain that 6lbs for more than a week or two.
