Anyone Gain Weight?

[swanssl 0]

I am 2 weeks out and in the first 10 days I lost 13 pounds now over the past 3 days I have gained 2.5 pounds back.....I have not changed what I am doing or eaten more, still on blended foods. Why would I gain weight eating so very little (less than 1000 calories per day) Maybe someone else went thru this...

Help!

It is very common. I lost 13 lb post op in the first 2 weeks, then didn't lose anything (actually gained) over the next 2 weeks until my first fill.

I had my first fill last Friday, and I've already began losing again.

Do don't let it get you down.

Hi

This did happen to me too. I lost like 20lbs in the first 2 weeks and ended up at the end of 5 weeks losing a total of about 14 lbs. But the Dr said that is normal. He said in the first 4 weeks patients lose about 12-14 lbs. I am at 8 weeks today and have lost 20 lbs.

Hope this helps...

From what I have read this is EXTREMELY common! I don't know why it happens but I can't even begin to count the people on this list that have posted about it. Don't worry, it will start to come off after you start getting fills.
